Sam Proft
Process Engineer
Waupaca Foundry, Inc. - Marinette
Professional Bio
I graduated in May 2024 from the University of Wisconsin Eau-Claire with a Bachelor of Science degree in Materials Science and Engineering. I am currently pursuing a Master of Science degree through the University of Kentucky in Manufacturing Systems Engineering while continuing to work full-time.
I currently work at Waupaca Foundry as a Process Engineer where my focus is Lean Manufacturing and implementing new Non-Destructive Testing technology throughout the foundry. Recently I have been spending a lot of my time leading internal Kaizen events and implementing Resonant Frequency into our finishing process.
Passionate about paving the way for current and future generations of tradeswomen. You'll be able to recognize me on the floor by my hot pink safety vest and Barbie themed stickers on my hardhat.
"Engineer like a girl"!
