About the Speaker
Andrew Fisher is a Manufacturing Engineering Manager at Edmund Optics. After receiving a BS in Optical Engineering and an MS in Optics from the University of Rochester's Institute of Optics he joined Edmund Optics in 2012. Originally working with the product support team and then R&D department, the majority of his time at Edmund has been spent in manufacturing. He has over 10 years of experience in glass CNC fabrication and metrology, focused primarily on extremely short lead time custom optical components, as well as several years creating diamond turned aluminum mirrors.
While at Edmund, Andrew has helped to build a robust educational outreach program that is now managed full time by a dedicated coordinator and supported by employee volunteers. This group has taught hundreds of students over the years, touching on all levels of education (from elementary up to college) and many different methods (from in-class lessons to hands-on demos to on-site facility tours). He is also an original member of Edmund's Global Sustainability Committee, which formed several years ago to take a dedicated look at environmentally-focused initiatives both within the company and the overall optics industry.
