Chuku Oje is currently working as a Environmental Permit Engineer for the State of Michigan, mostly in Air Quality Control for emissions and particulates.
He travelled all the way from the West Coast (San Francisco) in order to start his Bachelor Degree in Chemical Engineering with a particular focus in Biomolecular Engineering... All of this in the University of Pennsylvania.
He had a rough time in the 2008 crisis taking almost a year to set foot in his first job: Environmental Engineer for the City of Philadelphia.
He had a change of heart and moved to Consulting Engineering at AECOM in DC Area working with several different clients from many industries, but still with a focus in Air Quality and Environmental Control.
He is now currently working for the State of Michigan as a Permit Environmental Engineer. His main tasks:
Review Permit-to-Install (PTI) applications for the installation of new equipment and associated control devices.
Reviews of permit applications include an evaluation of potential emissions from the installation or modification of air emissions sources.
In his free time, he fences (yep, the actual swords) and he enjoys it a lot!
A random fact: apparently, he is all in regarding Chivas-America rivarly... Sorry guys, if you want to see some real Mexican teams check out Tigres UANL.
