¡Hola!
My name is Miguel Salgado and I'm originally from Puerto Rico. I moved to Chicago in 2006 after graduating from college as both a Biologist and Mechanical Engineer. I currently work as a rotating equipment maintenance and reliability engineer for a major oil company in Northwest Indiana. I founded and led various diversity and inclusion initiatives within my company as I have a deep affinity for fairness and equality for all. I also currently attend the Kellogg School of Business part-time MBA program where I am majoring in International Busines Strategy, and Entrepeneurship and Innovation. I am also an active member of the Kellogg part-time MBA student association and am currently working to bring MOSAIC week diversity initiative to Wieboldt Hall.
