Success Stories from Vermilion County, ILKaylee Ritzman, Class of 2015Danville High SchoolThyssen-Krupp Presta Student Intern
What have been some eye-openers throughout this whole experience?A huge eye opener for me has been how nice and friendly most of the workers are here; they are always willing to help us when we need it. Also, the amount of women in the manufacturing workforce surprised me. Most people see manufacturing as a male dominant industry and it really isn't. There are plenty of women who are line operators or managers.
Some eye-openers throughout this experience have been how clean and safe ThyssenKrupp is, as well as how state of the art the facility is. Manufacturing is also very broad, which is something I didn’t think about.

I was exposed to several aspects of the engineering field including CAD software, writing programs for robot machines, creating circuit boards for a specified task, and creating miniature “factories.” By getting my feet wet in multiple engineering disciplines and general components applicable to any engineering, I was able to decide if engineering was actually what I thought it was and what specifically interested me the most.
It takes a whole community… We’re looking for committee members:
