He emphasizes the value of hands-on experience in plant operations and outlines his aspirations for the future.
Here are some highlights from the episode:
"When I was a kid I was always tinkering with things. I was taking things apart, wanting to see how they worked. I grew an appreciation for the inner workings of things. But if you asked my parents I was destructive."
"There are so many things that we do, and you know, so many problems that we solve that I don't think I'll ever get bored of."
"You can't go back into the same situation with the same mindset. You know, old keys don't open new doors."
"I definitely enjoy getting out to the plants and meeting the plant personnel and just bringing the whole operation full circle."
