TWIST Program and Pathfinder Regional Tech High

At Sanderson MacLeod, we know that the future of American manufacturing depends on developing the next generation of skilled technical leaders—and that starts with strong partnerships.

That’s why we’re proud to collaborate with Pathfinder Regional Tech High through our TWIST (Technical Work Instruction and Skills Training) program. Pathfinder is a powerhouse when it comes to preparing students for real-world success, and their recent $730,000 award through the Career Technical Initiative is proof of the impact they’re making.

By combining hands-on technical education with real manufacturing experience, programs like TWIST not only help students build valuable skills, but also strengthen the talent pipeline our industry needs to remain competitive in the United States.

Congratulations to Pathfinder and all the CTI grant recipients—together, we’re building the workforce of tomorrow.

A Legacy Engineered. A Future in Motion.

Today marks a milestone at Sanderson MacLeod—the first day in over 41 years without Chris Breyare designing, refining, and pushing the boundaries of what’s technically possible. It’s also the first day of his well-earned retirement.

Chris wasn’t just part of the team—he was a driving force behind the innovation that shaped our processes, optimized our tools, and elevated our standards. Here, Chris bookends his career by standing next to the Company’s very first automated twisting machine, which he helped install.

Through decades of hands-on problem-solving and improvement, he helped lay the foundation on which we continue to build today. Because of his impact, this isn’t just a farewell—it’s the beginning of a new era. One powered by his legacy, and carried forward by those he’s inspired to think smarter, move faster, and reach further.

It’s been an honor to work alongside Chris. Now, we take what he taught us—and keep forging ahead.
