Greg Wilkett, Fluor-BWXT President and CEO
Austin Vance is a NDA specialist at PORTS. The Lenore, West Virginia native now calls Chillicothe home with his wife and two young children.
Austin made his way to southern Ohio through Shawnee State University where he played basketball and graduated with a degree in chemistry and minors in math and biology. But, basketball wasn’t his only sport. In high school Austin played football and was inducted into his high school’s inaugural Hall of Fame class for his athletic accomplishments.
Austin keeps pretty busy this time of year. For the past eight years he has helped coached high school basketball in the region, and this year he is the junior varsity coach for Waverly High School.
“I enjoy the people I work with. I enjoy doing different types of analysis that we have in the NDA department,” said Vance. “Our schedule of four days a week, 10 hours a day is probably my favorite thing about working here.”

Combined, our companies have employed thousands of Ohioans across the state and have generated millions of dollars in revenues for Ohio companies and small businesses.
