EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT

Volunteering in Ukraine: Alexander John, embodies what it means to be a glass warrior. Before joining the SMI team in 2017 and becoming a supervisor at our Ashland City, TN, plant, he served in the U.S. Army as an 11B and was stationed at 101st 1-502 C Company. During the initial conflict in Ukraine in early 2022, Alex took time off at SMI to volunteer in Ukraine as a humanitarian, helping set-up a field hospital in Kiev. He also helped train locals in the area in combat first aid. When asked why he decided to go, he stated, “I served because I wanted to do something bigger than myself. I wanted to help.” SMI is inspired by veterans like Alex, today and every day.
