I am a Penn State alumni and current Process Improvement Engineering Manager at OraSure Technologies, Inc. located in Bethlehem, PA. We focus on oral fluid-based diagnostic testing devices for infectious diseases (COVID-19, HIV, hepatitis, etc.) and other conditions (drug/alcohol abuse, etc.). I have previously worked for Avantor Performance Materials, a pharmaceutical/food grade chemical manufacturer, and Victaulic, a pipe coupling/piping systems manufacturer. Through my experiences, I have developed a broad range of knowledge and skills, both professionally and technically. I actively apply the concepts I have learned to my career and everyday life. I am organized, a team player, and results-driven.Thanks for checking out my page, and I wish you the best. WE ARE!Mark Emrick
