Kolpa, Jeff #491


 

I am the Global Marketing Director of Phosphorus Specialties in Solvay, large European based chemical company.  For those from upstate NY, the town of Solvay near Syracuse is named for our founder and the company.  I develop commercial strategies, manage innovation the pipeline, and manage a global technical marketing team who develops business cases and supports cross functional activities with technical and market information.  

I am married to Rebecca Kolpa who was shirted TEP in Spring 1995, and I am the father of four:  a son almost 20, who is working to be an electrician; a daughter 18, who will be attending Clarkson University this fall; and twin 13 year old daughters.

I currently live in Rockaway, NJ, but travel the globe.

My only alumni activity to date is via fellow brothers and staying in touch with tepnet, Facebook, etc.

I believe now would be a good time for to be active, as I have a daughter attending Clarkson in the fall.  I was extremely active as an undergrad having been house manager, chancellor, etc.  I even won a TEP scholarship back in the day.  Besides, I need to put this TEP tattoo to work somewhere…
