BioZyme® Inc., one of the global fermentation leaders, has announced the appointment of Maria Haag, Ph.D., as the company’s new Director of Analytics and Software Development. In her role, Haag will streamline and strengthen existing technologies and develop new solutions to create efficiencies within the company.
“I am super excited about the opportunity to join the team at BioZyme,” Haag said. “Not too many careers will let me combine my two favorite things in life—animals and computers. I want to make sure that people feel good about their jobs, including our customers. That means ensuring that everyone on the team has the technology they need to do their jobs.”
Haag earned both her Ph.D. and master’s degree in Animal Genetics and Genomics, respectively, from the University of Missouri. However, she spent her doctoral studies in a computer lab rather than in a typical animal science lab. A life-long learner and computer guru, Haag developed educational software for classroom use, the company stated.
In her early career, Maria Haag also developed software to help livestock producers visualize the long-term effects of genetic selection.
“We are thrilled to have someone with Maria’s background in technology and passion for animals fill this very important role. The structure, processes and systems that our incredible team of people can use are vital to BioZyme’s success. With Dr. Haag leading the development and refinement of our systems and processes, I feel confident our people will have improved tools to accomplish their goals,” said Lisa Norton, BioZyme President and CEO.
