Kelly Williamson
Machine Shop Manager
After getting tired of utterly dominating the manufacturing side of the oil and gas industry in Alberta, Kelly decided to move into an industry that more closely aligned with his love of fast cars. His 22 years of experience as a Red Seal machinist, programmer and project manager gave him a great background for his self appointed title of being Armstrong’s most awesome Machine Shop Manager. He joined the Armstrong team in April of 2021 and has tremendously enjoyed collaborating with his fellow extremely talented employees on various interesting projects. Kelly’s goals at Armstrong have been to manufacture high quality components with turnarounds so quick that they leave the customer beaming with delight and awe. When Kelly isn’t stroking his own mammoth sized ego, he spends his spare time on the race track with his car or on several types of back country adventures.
