Dina McKinney - Director for the North Austin AMD Design Center
I’ve worked in microprocessor design in various roles my entire career, all 24 years. Microprocessor design has all the characteristics of a great adventure. There is excitement, creativity, passion, drive, determination, surprise, success and tremendous challenge. You learn to love the journey, count on your team, and eagerly anticipate the joy of success, achieving the goal, leaving your mark, moving others forward.
