Studying mechanical engineering at Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), Jeff Kerns worked in the Polymer Research Lab. Using RIT’s co-op program, he worked for two aerospace companies focusing on drafting, quality, and manufacturing for aerospace fasteners and metallurgy. He also studied abroad living in Dubrovnik, Croatia.

After college, he became a commissioning engineer, traveling the world working on precision rotary equipment. Then he attended a few master's courses at the local college and helped an automation company build equipment.

Growing up in Lancaster County, PA he always liked to tinker, build, and invent. He is ecstatic to be at Machine Design Magazine in New York City and looks forward to producing valuable information in the mechanical industry.
