Sen. McCray Meets BTI Students

Sen. McCray meets Shalia, Keena and Dr. Butscher

On September 30, 2020, Sen. Cory McCray (D, District 45, Baltimore City) visited BTI to tour the facility and learn more about our BioSTART to Lab Associates program, our graduates and employers.

Sen. McCray heard from graduates Julia Briggs-Moseley, Lab Assistant I at Catalent (read Julia’s story here), and Sheree Browning, Quality Assurance on the Floor Production Lead, and met with our current cohort. BTI Board President Pablo Pineyro Pablo shared his prospective as an employer focusing on how prepared our graduates are to enter positions at BD.

Our students were excited to meet with and get to know the Senator, one of Maryland’s leaders.

Sen. McCray was interested to learn that nearly 30 percent of the students entering BTI and 25 percent of BTI graduates over the past 22 years have been from his own district.

We will look for more opportunities to collaborate with Sen. McCray and thank him for his leadership.
