Kott, now the Lead Shift Supervisor at National Grid’s Power Distribution Control Center, recently hosted students at the facility and participated in the STEM Career Showcase to highlight career opportunities in the field.
Kott expressed his appreciation for OCC’s smaller class sizes and engaged faculty, which contributed to his positive educational experience.
