JML Taps Wade Cook as VP of Business Development

JML Optical Industries, LLC (JML) today announced the addition of Wade Cook to their industry leading management team.

“Wade brings with him a wealth of knowledge and a fresh perspective on the nuances of the photonics industry in Rochester and around the world,” noted JML CEO Bob Bicksler.  “We believe this is a game changer for our customers and for JML.  We are excited to have the opportunity to continue our growth trajectory.”

“I look forward to joining the JML and working with the JML team,” commented Wade Cook.  “I am thrilled to be a part of the company, and the industry as a whole, as it continues to grow and offer ground breaking solutions to a wide range of markets.”

“We are confident that Wade will bring new opportunities for our existing employees and provide the basis for company growth that will bring with it employment opportunities for others in our community,” said Vice President of Engineering KC Kamenecka.

Within the past two years JML has acquired Harold Johnson Optical Labs and relocated its operations to Rochester, added an engineered aspheric fabrication business unit, expanded its systems manufacturing capabilities and added a new engineered cylinders business unit.  The growth of their management team is consistent with their overall growth in the marketplace.

Cook is a director of the New York Photonics Board of Directors.
