“At the Center for Economic Growth, O’Connell has managed 45 apprentices, developed a nanotechnology engineering technician apprenticeship program and worked with partners in semiconductor manufacturing. It’s really cool what’s being created in the Capital Region and just how far it’s sent across the United States and even internationally,” she says.

This year, O’Connell started a new role at NY Creates, a research and development innovation hub, partnering with workforce development employers.
