Hydro-Thermal Corporation hires Michelle Palmquist as Chief Financial Officer
Prior to joining Hydro-Thermal, Palmquist had major divisional roles at Kellogg’s in Battle Creek, Michigan and GE Healthcare in Waukesha. She worked directly with senior leadership in evaluating the financial performance of major business units and led the charge on a global supply chain financing program at Kellogg’s.
“Michelle brings a wealth of big company experience in finance and accounting,” said CEO Jim Zaiser, “but she also fits into our company’s culture in a way that folks with big company experience often don’t.” Zaiser added that Palmquist will play a key role in helping the company expand over the next five years and beyond.
Palmquist is a Certified Public Accountant and graduated with a BS in Accounting from the University of Wisconsin-Parkside and earned her MBA at Keller Graduate School in Chicago.
