Humphries stated, “I know the Westfall team and their capabilities. They are dynamic executives and committed to investing in their teams, customers, and technologies. Great examples include their new clean rooms in California, Wisconsin and Chicago, as well as their stable of proprietary technologies.”

He has also served for many years on the boards of both the nonprofit Silicon Valley Education Foundation (promoting STEM education) and Superior Industries International Inc.
