Michael Kurzeja is the President of North American Young Generation in Nuclear – NA-YGN. He is a dynamic leader, an excellent emissary and an excited professional who loves what he does. He also respects and enjoys the people he works with and is developing some long term professional friendships during the long hours that he spends volunteering for NA-YGN.
A couple of weeks ago, Michael had the opportunity to testify in front of a group of Senators on the topic of building new nuclear power plants in the US. He talks about that experience, what he has learned in the industry, the value of his experience as a Marine, and the value that he sees that nuclear energy can contribute to the world’s prosperity while at the same time leaving the world better for his children than it was when he arrived.
I really enjoyed talking with Michael and I hope you enjoy listening to the conversation. Warning – listening to this podcast can be hazardous to your current career satisfaction if you are NOT in the nuclear industry. (Grin)

Regarding your discussion of startup test engineers, it is a good thing a few of us were on the startups in Korea during the 90’s with their digital protection systems. Maybe we’ll be able to keep up with the up and coming young folks. 😉
