Katrina Toews
Project Coordinator
As a Project Coordinator, I work directly with Customers and the Project Management group to provide support on a wide array of projects. I thrive in a fast-paced environment where I help establish aggressive but realistic project timelines and milestones. I graduated from the University of Washington in 2016 where I developed skills in research, writing, organization and much more. This has assisted in my ability to jump into different projects and understand the project requirements and manage schedules. Additionally, with over 5 years at Sigma Design, I have worked in a variety of roles: in the Lab, Shop, and Engineering groups; this has provided me with diverse experience within the different processes which assists my ability to guide projects from beginning to end.
Questions & Answers
How do you make people laugh?
I find humor in everyday situations. I tend towards observational humor and tend to crack light jokes during conversation.
If you were a tool or piece of equipment, what would you be and why?
I'd choose to be a loom. This tool is used to create the very fabrics we wear. Without the loom, we are without blankets and clothing, the very things that keep us warm.

Setting clear goals allows for quicker execution, accurate time planning, and completion of projects per specifications.
