According to information released by the company this week, Mikaelian has been with GLI for more than 20 years, having started work at a lab in South Africa. Having recently served as Senior Manager of Engineering, her new role will see her lead GLI’s Engineering teams as they work closely with regulators, operators and suppliers to provide world-class testing services and customer satisfaction.
