Welcome to Dankmeyer, Chris Hierstetter!

Our newest fabrication technician, Chris Hierstetter, may have a last name that sounds familiar. He is a third generation fabrication technician here at Dankmeyer! Chris has always been driven to help people and loves working with his hands. He wanted to find a career that allowed him to blend the two. Chris has been training in our Baltimore Washington office in Linthicum and has truly enjoyed the hands-on training. Of all the tasks so far, he’s most enjoyed pulling plastic for prosthetic sockets, a task that blends science, art, and respect for incredibly hot plastic. Chris most looks forward to lamination, a time honored part of the prosthetics world, another skill that blends art and science. When not at work, Chris improves his hand/eye coordination by playing video games. We are thrilled to have Chris join team Dankmeyer and look forward to sharing his work with you.
