“BASF is dedicated to advancing women in STEM careers,” said Denise Kingstrom, distribution director for Automotive Refinish, North America. “The Detroit chapter of SWE has one of the largest memberships with a vision to be the center of information for women in engineering. It’s a perfect fit for BASF as we strive to encourage more women to consider engineering careers.”
