My professional story includes two distinct chapters. After a long, successful industrial engineering career with Procter & Gamble, I moved to a second career in education. In that second chapter I worked with students from elementary to college, from ten years old to adult learners. Throughout all my experiences I have been partnered with my wife Debbie who can be credited with half of any and all accomplishments. Whether in engineering, education, or volunteer work, I try to bring energy, enthusiasm, and a collaborative style to all endeavors. As now, I'm retired ... mostly. While I am still doing some part time teaching and volunteer work, my daily priority is serving as a chauffeur to a border collie.
