Wiseman has demonstrated her passion for helping youth with many acts of service, including serving as an engineering mentor for exceptional high school students in Northrop Grumman’s WORTHY program; speaking to junior high and high school students at NSBE awards banquets and cofounding and talking to the public for an “Engineering at the Mall” outreach program of the Northrop Grumman Women Engineers.

Ellis first joined NSBE as an undergraduate at The Catholic University of America, where he received his degree in computer engineering in May 2002. He now works as an engineer for Pepco Holdings Inc., an energy delivery company serving about 1.9 million customers in Delaware, the District of Columbia, Maryland and New Jersey. www.nsbe.org AE member Patricia CoonsWallace, a 15-year employee of IBM Corporation, has taken a new assignment with the company as Americas Systems Availability Leader program manager, responsible for more than 50 accounts in the Americas Geo region — the U.S., Canada and Latin America.
