Samantha Chiste is a Project Manager. She received her Bachelor’s Degree in Industrial Engineering with a minor in Six Sigma from Penn State University. She also received her MBA from Penn State. In her role as a project manager, she oversees the progress of many projects. Her responsibilities include verifying the delivery of purchase orders, ensuring adherence to project schedules, and overall project oversight to keep milestones on track. She also develops proposals, creates scopes of work for bidding & construction, and prepares risk evaluations. Samantha’s favorite part of the job is completing a project! She loves the satisfaction of having everything installed and working correctly for a client’s project. Her least favorite part of the job is when there is a requirement for a design change during a project. This can cause changes to budgets, lead times, and project completion deadlines, and very rapidly change the course of the project. Samantha wants all of her projects to be delivered in a timely and completed form.
