Meet Ron Hockersmith

Ron grew up in Arizona and studied Mechanical Engineering at Arizona State University and The California Institute of Technology. After stints in gas turbine engine design and research on the mechanics of viruses he ended up in Milwaukee at GE Healthcare. Ron became a Lean Master Blackbelt and led teams in new product introductions at GE for 14 years before transitioning to a VP of Engineering role for an international defense contractor. Ron retired early in 2020 and after fixing everything there was to fix on his 1903 Victorian home, he got bored and started working part-time at a brewery before joining forces with former colleagues to start Amorphic Beer.
