Mr. Tharp joined Electromech Technologies in 2006. After graduating high school Darren worked in the beef packing industry. Upon realizing this wasn't his "dream job", he started attending Dodge City Community College in the evenings where, with much hard work, he attained an Associates degree. Darren worked his way through the ranks and was promoted to Employment Director with National Beef. Determination and perseverance led Darren to continue his education resulting in his attaining a Bachelors degree in Human Resources. That achievement resulted in another promotion to Assistant Director of Human Resources. In an effort to become a part of the aviation industry, Darren worked for over four years with a broker/dealer and repair station as their Human Resources Manager before being recruited by Electromech Technologies. "I have thirteen years in Human Resources. Throughout my career I have experienced just about every facet of HR." "I have been with Electromech Technologies for over a year and enjoy the energy and growth potential it has to offer. I am the Vice President of the Southwest Diversity Counsel, active in community activities, and the Wichita River Festival. I enjoy spending time with my son and 4 dogs, swimming and working in the yard." |
