Katherine (Nelson) (Jolly) Olig (Fall 1995), Product Development Manager, Medtronic, Brooklyn Park MN. Was assigned to manage our pediatric perfusion project in Jan 07. Perfusion is a new technology for me, but it goes back to my roots of chemical engineering. It is hard core heat and mass transfer, fluid dynamics, and thermodynamics. I am sure there could be some great senior design projects in this area. I sold my house in Shoreview and moved to Eden Prairie. I will be getting married (2nd go-around) in Aug 2007 to Chris Olig and will also become a stepmother to Meredith (7) and Lauren (6). For fun, I compete in triathlon. It’s a blast.
