Kate Armstrong is a Chief Engineering A330 and A340 Placement, Fuels Specialization at Airbus Aircraft. Colleagues describe her as "I had the pleasure of supervising Kate during her first co-op term. She brought so much professionalism, innovation, enthusiasm as well as ideas to the role that I often forgot she was only a first year student. Kate showed appreciation for the reputation of our organization and understood what it meant to deliver quality programs with little guidance. Kate was able to handle shifting deadlines and expectations in a calm and determined manner. She was always eager to take on tasks while consistently exceeding my expectations in the quality of her work. I can say without hesitation that she will be a hard working, problem solving, highly valued member of any team she is a part of." and "It is rare to find a student as accomplished and capable as Kate. I had the privilege of working with her in her capacity as Youth Coach for the Runnymede FIRST LEGO League robotics team. In this time-sensitive environment Kate was able to motivate her team into meeting tight deadlines with award-winning results. I was impressed by the initiative that she took in teaching herself FLL strategy and technical skills in order to optimally support her team. She also showed great maturity in recognizing operational issues and reorganizing the structure of her team to meet student needs. In a crowded room of professional adults, Kate would always be the person that I could count on to get the job done. Kate would make a phenomenal asset to any team and she earns my highest recommendation. "
