In this kickoff episode of Inside Out Engineering, Nikki sits down with longtime friend and industrial systems engineer Heather Critz to explore how growing up in rural Alabama shaped Heather’s path into tech consulting and operational excellence. They unpack how emotional intelligence shows up in places we often overlook, why systems engineering is more human than most people think, and how process, communication, and self-awareness intersect in the workplace. It’s a conversation about roots, reinvention, and the hidden EQ behind every “logical” decision engineers make.
