“Connie Perkins has been with Scientific Instruments (SI) for over 40 years. Connie (or Conster Monster as some have come to know her!) finds that some of the most enjoyable aspects of her job are building sensors and learning all the different applications that they are eventually used in. Before working at SI one of the most interesting jobs Connie has worked in, was in the manufacturing of Dosimeters for monitoring radiation. On the personal side Connie comes from a family of 8 children of 4 boys & 4 girls, where Connie is number 6! When not at work she enjoys Reading & Sewing, and the enjoying the irresistible Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Icing. Given the choice to travel the world she would choose the United States to find out about our history and all the fun spots! If Connie was not working at SI she says she would probably be doing the same type of job in electronics assembly! We thank Connie for immense contribution to SI and her amazing personality!”
