Cydney Severio

CEO for EME Company

I have held several positions with EME since hired in November of 1989. I began my journey in Accounts Receivable, then moved to Purchasing before going into Manufacturing Management. While in Manufacturing Management I was instrumental in helping EME acquire its ISO certification in 2005. In 2014, I was promoted to General Manager and in 2020, I became the CEO. I embraced each role with an open mind and eagerness to learn. The journey was both challenging and rewarding, and I would not change a thing.

I have been with EME since February 1991. I have held the positions of Receptionist/Billing, Buyer, and Credit Manager. In 2018, I was instrumental in transitioning our ISO certification from the 2008 version to the 2015 version.

Over the years I have watched EME’s manufactured sales growth climb from 15% to 90% of the total sales.

Cody Brown

Manufacturing Manager

I began working at EME during high school and continued working part-time while attending LSU. I worked on the production floor, made boxes, pulled orders, and even drove the van from warehouse to warehouse when EME consisted of 3 buildings. After graduating, I moved into the role of Inventory and Logistics Coordinator where I moved LTL freight and assisted with managing inventory. I was promoted to Manufacturing Manager in January of 2021, where I do a little bit of everything, such as managing employees, staying on top of raw material, finished goods and mechanic’s parts inventory. I am also involved in quality control, purchasing, negotiating freight rates, control of the shipping department, and special projects.

I started my career at EME in 2005 as an Industrial Equipment Technician and became Project Engineer in 2016. Since taking on that role, my team & I, along with our resources, have been focused on and incorporated many automation processes into our operation. My responsibilities include coordinating and completing projects on time within budget and scope. I take great pride in what I do to represent our company.
