Description

Dear Members and Friends of the Puget Sound Chapter,

We have confirmed the attendance of our keynote speaker, a remarkable example of the Hispanic potential in STEM:

Ernesto González-Beltrán,

Vice President,
Commercial Airplanes Quality,
The Boeing Company

Ernesto González-Beltrán was appointed Vice President of Commercial Airplanes Quality in July 2017. The Quality organization ensures design and build quality and promotes a culture of first-time quality and compliance throughout the Commercial Airplanes value stream.
Prior to leading the Quality organization, González-Beltrán amassed extensive experience in the auto industry. He previously was Executive Vice President of Manufacturing Operations at Yazaki North America overseeing operations in the United States, Canada, Mexico and Central America.
He earned a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering and an MBA from the Technological Institute of Sonora, Mexico. He also completed several leadership development programs at the University of Michigan, Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania and the Toyota Institute in Japan.

We are very excited to invite you to join us at our 2nd Annual Fundraising Gala, which aims to nurture the Scholarship Fund and to celebrate passionate individuals from the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers that embody the mission of empowering Hispanics. We will be recognizing these agents of change through our Chapter Awards (names will be published in this link) as well as our first class of Puget Sound Scholars at our Gala on Friday, June 1, 2018 from 6 PM to 9 PM.

Come and meet many of your esteemed colleagues and friends in an opportunity to network and make an impact in the lives of Hispanic students pursuing STEM careers.

We thank you for your support. Please note that ALL proceeds and donations of the event will be designated to benefit the Chapter's Scholarship Fund.

Kind Regards,
SHPE Puget Sound Leadership
