Appears in Print as: 'Get Connected!'


The annual AMBA Conference holds a special place in my heart. It has been a critical event for my career at MMT because of the relationships it has helped me build and the challenges and solutions it has revealed to me through its educational and networking opportunities. “Connect” with me at this year’s event next month.

The 2018 Conference is designed to inspire, motivate and educate mold builders on how to positively influence the people around them. Becoming better is not something that just happens; good leaders continually work to make themselves better, and I know the 2018 Conference will do just that!

The theme this year is “Get connected,”and that is exactly what you will do as some of the nation’s top mold builders gather in Grand Rapids to learn new ways to increase profitability, connect with industry peers and improve operations and tactics in order to impact bottom-line profits.
