Let Me Introduce Myself

I have been reluctant to start my blog without having a blockbuster of a first post. I've finally realized that waiting to have the "perfect" start is simply preventing me from starting at all, and that is not a good thing.

Instead I will start with an introduction. I am Jill Jusko. I am a senior editor with IndustryWeek, and I've been writing about manufacturing now since about 1998. It's been my pleasure to interview a lot of great folks and get inside many manufacturing plants in those years.
