Episode notes
What does a 40-year career in metrology really look like and how do you build one that lasts? In this episode of ChatNAPT , Chuck and Howie sit down with Danae Powell, General Manager of Precision Measurement at Carlton Industrial Solutions and a longtime leader in the metrology community. From her early days in the Marine Corps to leading teams and building labs, Danae shares the real story behind her career and the moments that shaped it. They talk about how people actually find their way into metrology, why strong technical foundations still matter, and what it takes to lead in an industry that’s constantly evolving. The conversation also dives into the current state of NCSLI, the need to rebuild engagement across the community, and why collaboration is more important now than ever. Because at the end of the day, metrology isn’t just about standards or compliance, it’s about the people behind the measurements and the experience they bring to the table.
