Glenn Pushis, Senior Vice President Special Projects
Glenn Pushis will be retiring from Steel Dynamics effective October 1, 2025, to pursue a position as the Chief Executive Officer of McBride Capital Partners "Project Aero", a U.S. based company that plans to construct a titanium manufacturing facility in North Carolina. Post October 1, 2025, he will continue to provide consulting services to Steel Dynamics through commissioning of the company's new aluminum flat rolled facilities during the year. Mr. Pushis joined Steel Dynamics in 1994. Most recently, he was responsible for the successful design and construction of the company's new 650,000 metric ton state-of-the-art lower-carbon, recycled aluminum flat rolled products mill in Columbus, Mississippi with two satellite recycled aluminum slab centers in the Southwestern United States and Northcentral Mexico. From 2019 until 2022, Mr. Pushis was responsible for the successful design and construction of the company's Sinton Flat Roll Division, developed to serve the Southwestern United States and Mexico. He has extensive experience in this capacity and has been instrumental in numerous construction projects for Steel Dynamics since its founding. Prior to that, Mr. Pushis served as Senior Vice President, Long Products Steel Group, responsible for the company's four long product steel mills. Mr. Pushis has held various operational and leadership roles, including roles within the Engineered Bar Products Division and the Butler Flat Roll Division.

These responsibilities include leadership of the company's new strategic aluminum investments which are currently being commissioned under Mr. Pushis' leadership, as well as an ancillary recycled aluminum deox-rod facility. Mr. Alvarez joined the company in 2019 as Senior Vice President, Southwest U.S. and Mexico to support the company's steel and metals recycling growth strategy in that region, where he utilized his extensive knowledge of flat rolled steel operations and gained considerable knowledge of the metals recycling business. Based on his success, he was promoted to lead the company's metals recycling platform in March 2022, where he has led the transformation and growth of this platform. Prior to joining Steel Dynamics, Mr. Alvarez held numerous senior leadership positions within the steel industry beginning in 2004.
