(Mt. Royal, New Jersey, June 6, 2016) – The Association of Women in the Metals Industry (AWMI) is pleased to announce Mary Pollen as 2015 Member of the Year.
“It’s really an honor just to be nominated.” said Ms. Pollen. “I know most of the women nominated for this award well. They are all very deserving nominees and have all done so much to grow AWMI as an organization. Being nominated is special because it validates the work you have been doing. I’m over the moon about receiving this award.”
Ms. Pollen has been a member of AWMI team for 22 years. In that time, she has held the position of Detroit Chapter Membership Chair, Treasurer and President and currently serves as the International Marketing Chair. She is employed by Michigan Seamless Tube & Pipe as General Manager of Tube & Pipe Sales for MST – Seamless Tube & Pipe.
“The support of my boss as well as my company has been fantastic. I really enjoy serving as our Marketing Chair, which would be difficult to do without the continued support of my MST family with whom I have worked for over 32 years.” She continued, “I love talking to people about AWMI. It’s incredibly rewarding and enjoyable to volunteer for an organization you believe in so strongly.”
Ms. Pollen will receive her award November 10th, 2016 at AWMI’s Annual Conference at the Loews Royal Pacific Resort in Orlando, Florida. More information can be found at www.awmi.org.
