Making an Impact-At Work and At Home
Brandi’s pride in her work extends far beyond the lab. From successful audits to walking through a store and recognizing products made with materials from AdvanSix, she finds joy in knowing she contributes to something bigger. She frequently shares with her 13-year-old son while shopping, “‘Hey, we made that. It started from us.'”
