✨Mentor Spotlight✨
Meet Yongkorng (Korng) Chheu, a Mechanical Engineer at Syska Hennessy Group with two years of experience on aviation and mission-critical projects, including work on the Burbank Airport and several data centers.
Korng began his career at Syska as a Mechanical Design Engineering intern and, as an Engineering Development Trainee, led a team of 10 fellow trainees to develop a pipe pressure-loss calculation app. He earned his B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from California State University, Long Beach.
As an Innovations Coach at his firm, Korng is used to guiding others through the process of turning an idea into something real, and he brings that same coaching mindset to his work with ACE students. Driven by a strong commitment to sustainable engineering, he encourages students to think creatively and consider environmentally conscious solutions as they explore their own design challenges.
Thank you, Korng, for supporting and inspiring the next generation through ACE Mentor LA/OC. 💛
