斯坦纳迪恩公司首席技术官Brad Stroia博士分享他对人和工作的热情

National Volunteer Week, held April 18-24, is an opportunity to recognize the impact of volunteer service and the power of volunteers to tackle society’s greatest challenges, build stronger communities, and be a force that transforms the world. One Stanadyne team member who exemplifies this, as well as the company’s strategic vision of improving the communities in which we live, work, and serve, is Chief Technology Officer (CTO) Dr. Brad Stroia.

对改造世界的热情

虽然他的职业生活充满了工程项目和专利，但斯特罗亚博士的个人热情却集中在人身上。他有一种与生俱来的能力，能够看到如何不断地改善世界，并不知疲倦地追求让世界变得更好。

"作为一名工程师，我一直对修复损坏的东西充满热情，"斯特罗亚博士说。"我似乎有一种看到问题的直觉能力，并努力寻找解决方案。"

早期的灵感

At an early age, Dr. Stroia’s grandfather asked him the question – 你要做什么来改变世界？

“My grandfather was my role model,” said Dr. Stroia. “He had a passion for people that drove him to do amazing things for others. He always fought for equity, empowerment, and education.”

Beyond encouraging his engineering ability and supporting his education, Dr. Stroia’s grandfather challenged him to constantly consider what he could do to make life better for all humanity. Today, Dr. Stroia continues to follow his grandfather’s teachings and in his footsteps. His passion to help has impacted countless people and organizations throughout his professional and personal networks.

斯特罗亚博士目前在以下机构的董事会任职 技术革新, a global tech education nonprofit that empowers girls and families to become leaders, creators, and problem-solvers.
