ACMAL is pleased to welcome Isabella Jaszczak as new Research Engineer to our team.

Isabella graduated with a master’s degree in Material Science and Engineering (MSE) from Michigan Tech in 2023. Her research utilized EBSD and STEM imaging to quantify microstructural changes in high-strength, low-alloy steels. Shortly after earning her graduate degree, she was hired as a research engineer for the MSE department, specifically working with the Institute of Materials Processing, the ARC Research Group, and ACMAL’s electron microscopy facility. She is here to help you with sample preparation, SEM analysis, STEM imaging, or instrument training.

Outside of work, Isabella is a HuskyFit instructor at the SDC and enjoys creating pottery as a member of the Copper Country Community Arts Center’s Clay Co-op. McClain State Park is her favorite place to be in the Copper Country
