Russ Young, CTO-Hach

Russ describes himself as the “head nerd” of the company. He is grateful to oversee the research projects at Hach and works with the lead scientists and lead engineers. He has his PHD in Bioanalytical Chemistry and Biophysics from Colorado State University. He knew he wanted to be a scientist or engineer since he was four years old. He got his start taking things apart as a kid and eventually moved into putting them back together. Now he takes an improvement approach when putting something back together to make it better than it was before.
