She joins Bridgestone from TE Connectivity, a publicly-traded company and global leader in connectors and sensors for the transportation, medical technology, energy, and data communications sectors.

At TE Connectivity, Correa most recently served as Vice President, Segment Chief Marketing Officer, Transportation Solutions.
