Dayton Region Manufacturers Association hires VP/President-In-Training

The Dayton Region Manufacturers Association Board of Trustees is pleased to announce the hiring of Amy Schrimpf as the new Vice President/President-In-Training.  

Schrimpf will work alongside Angelia Erbaugh and the staff as she progresses toward her position as President of DRMA upon Erbaugh’s retirement in late 2025.  

Schrimpf joins the DRMA team on July 22.  

“We are incredibly excited to be bringing Amy on with the DRMA. She brings a wealth of experience and is a trusted business leader who understands the Dayton Region. Her proven skill set, honed within similar organizations and in various roles and responsibilities, is a perfect fit," said David Reger, DRMA Board chair.

Schrimpf’s past positions include the Dayton Area Chamber of Commerce, the Dayton Development Coalition and most recently the City of Kettering, where she served as the economic development manager.

Erbaugh, current president, has agreed to stay with DRMA through 2025 prior to her retirement. During this period, Erbaugh and the staff will focus on mentoring and advising Schrimpf through the intricacies of leading DRMA.
