Women in Manufacturing: Christa Glassburn

The first series on our podcast features Women in Manufacturing.  Through this series, we will speak with several women holding careers in manufacturing. We’ll talk about their companies and careers, how they found themselves working in manufacturing, and advice they would give to women considering careers in manufacturing. 

For our second episode in the Women in Manufacturing series, we spoke with Christa Glassburn, Chief Operating Officer for PBE in North Tazewell, Virginia. In this podcast, you’ll hear about how a small manufacturing company is providing products to 30 countries around the world. We’ll talk about the many job openings available in manufacturing today, the “scrappiness” of our region’s manufacturers, and how you shouldn’t be scared to try new things and pursue new opportunities.
