New Hire Announcement

June 15, 2023

SMA is pleased to announce our two new June hires: mechanical intern, Anna, and full time electrical designer, Joseph!

Hi! I'm Anna, a junior mechanical engineering major at Wilkes University.

 

I am currently a Mechanical Design Intern here at Smith Miller. Since beginning here, I have learned real life HVAC and plumbing skills. While working on multiple projects, I have been able to understand the expectations much better. The real-life applications of what I have learned in school have helped me tremendously with progressing my learning career. I am excited to continue through my learning journey here at Smith Miller!


 

Joseph Rutkowski graduated from Wilkes University this May and works at SMA as a Junior Electrical Designer. In his spare time, he enjoys watching motorsports and also taking walks through nature. Joseph is looking forward to his future with Smith Miller Associates!
