Geocent welcomes Patrick Scheuermann, as its new Executive Vice-President for Aerospace and Defense, located in Geocent’s Huntsville, AL office, and Chief Development Officer for the Corporation. On November 13, Mr. Scheuermann retired from NASA, after three years as Center Director of NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center. He states that, “Working for NASA is a career many can only dream about.” Mr. Scheuermann has served in various NASA executive leadership positions helping the U.S. Government to diversify, partner, and transform the way it accomplished the mission at each location he served. At Geocent, he will continue to look for partnerships with tenants of the Redstone Arsenal, Stennis Space Center, and the Michoud Assembly Facility.

At Geocent, Mr. Scheuermann will provide oversight, leadership, and strategic focus to the execution and growth of Geocent’s Aerospace and Engineering activities across the country and around the world. “It has been an honor for Geocent and for me personally to work with Patrick for many years, where we were able to both watch and support him in solving problems and successfully implementing programs that many people would have seen as being too difficult,” said Dr. Robert A. “Bobby” Savoie, Chairman and CEO of Geocent. “We are fortunate to have someone of Patrick’s caliber choose to continue his success as a part of the Geocent team.”

Mr. Scheuermann is a native of New Orleans and graduate of the University of New Orleans with a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in Mechanical Engineering. He joined NASA in 1988 and served in various capacities. Throughout his career, Mr. Scheuermann received numerous honors, including NASA’s Outstanding Leadership Medal and NASA’s Exceptional Service Medal.

Geocent welcomes Patrick Scheuermann and looks forward to continuing to expand its aerospace, engineering, and other advanced technology capabilities.
