Kat Tew is a project manager at Atlantic Strategic Minerals in Richmond, Virginia. She has spent nearly a decade in the mining industry, working in mine planning, underground construction, and now heavy mineral sands. Her story began even earlier, when she attended her first SME conference as a high school student.
Kat speaks to the incredible diversity within SME, where you’ll meet not just engineers, but people in finance, HR, law, social media, geology, and more, all working together to shape the future of mining.
