Chris, Chief Engineer at the DIII-D National Fusion Facility (operated by General Atomics on behalf of the US Dept Of Energy), recently celebrated his 20-year anniversary with the General Atomics Energy Group! Chris joined the DIII-D team in 2004 as a mechanical engineer. While some things have changed over the ensuing years, "The core work and the positive working environment have remained consistent," he says. As Chris continues his role as Chief Engineer, he looks forward to increasing our understanding of magnetic confinement fusion and solving the remaining challenges to making fusion energy a reality. Thank you, Chris, for the amazing work you do! #GeneralAtomics #d3dnationalfusionfacility #science #fusionenergy #technology #GrowWithGA
