It is with great sadness that we share the passing of our fellow teammate, Jeff Brandt.
Jeff was a valued member of the MDI family for more than 16 years, dedicated to providing top-level service to our customers. He spent much of that time traveling extensively in support of our clients and coworkers, building lasting relationships across the company and leaving a meaningful impact on so many people along the way.
While Jeff was an engineer at heart, he was always keeping an eye out for new business opportunities. He also had a special gift for mentoring new MDI team members while out on the road. He always took people under his wing.
Jeff made an incredible difference in helping MDI grow, through strengthening client relationships, identifying new opportunities, and developing team members. His legacy, knowledge, and influence will continue to live on through all of us as we carry forward the work and values he shared. Even those who may not have had the opportunity to work directly with Jeff, will still benefit from the knowledge and practices he passed down through others on the team.
Jeff was a great engineer, teammate, mentor, and friend. He will be deeply missed.
