Ethan Steinmann – Automation Technician

Year you began at Nysus: 2023

College: University of Technology Sydney (Australia). Previously enrolled in a dual Bachelor degree of Engineering and
Information Technology Professional Practice

About Ethan: I married my wife nearly 2 years ago, she’s my friend, my family, my all. She holds a very special place in my heart and is the reason I came to live in America. We do everything together outside of her schooling and my work, which is the only thing worthwhile to me to be apart. Together we share a deep love for nature and enjoy various outdoor activities: camping, hiking, yoga, electric biking, barefoot walks, barefoot golf and gardening. In addition to these outdoor pursuits, I find personal satisfaction in dedicating my time to build personal gaming computers, while also demonstrating a fervent commitment to the care and maintenance of aquatic ecosystems. I fell passionate about aquatic ecosystems so I still have a way to connect to my love for surfing which I used to pursue daily at Maroubra beach in Australia.

Favorite Sports Team: Socceroos (Australia)

Favorite Food: My wife’s brownies and homemade crumbed chicken.
