TEAM LEADER
Jake Herrmann
TEAM LEADER
I joined the team in 2021 and have since held a variety of leadership positions within the team.
This year I was fortunate to be re-elected as the Team Leader and am excited to work with a new group of people, as AUMT strive for excellence with the exciting upcoming development of our new line of electric vehicles.
I look forward this year to planning the future of the team, while I oversee the development of ADL24e.”
TEAM LEADS
"After joining AUMT last year and familiarizing myself with the in’s and out’s of the team, I cannot wait to assist the team in getting the resources needed to build our dream car. I am especially grateful for the opportunity to apply my engineering thinking skills to our Business subsystem. As this year's Business Manager, I am very eager to build new connections to the team and provide a platform where my team members can achieve and showcase their hard work to industry, the public, and ultimately, at competition!"
