Camarillo, CA and Ridgecrest, CA (November 7, 2022) – Saalex Corporation today announced Ms. Gerri Markota is promoted to Director of Program Operations. Ms. Markota has served Saalex as Program Manager for our ESS, Machine Shop and DITAC contracts where she managed those contracts in support of government initiatives including training range systems, hardware/software development, field engineering, engineering services and logistics.

Her leadership style, approach to customer service, and dedication to the Saalex mission make her stand out as the right choice to influence appropriate change to meet our strategic goals,” said Robert Bezduch, President of Saalex Corporation. “Gerri’s promotion not only fills a critical gap in our leadership infrastructure, but also increases our corporate presence in Ridgecrest. We have supported China Lake and the Ridgecrest community for over 20 years and remain dedicated to its growth and continued success.”
“I am excited and thankful for the opportunity to support Saalex as the Director of Program Operations,” said Markota. “I look forward to working with the team at Saalex to expand our footprint and continue to provide outstanding products and services to our customers.”
