I started out in the Kansas City area attending college in Missouri then moving to California for less than a year designing PC boards. I moved back to Missouri to design meat packing equipment for about 6 months before returning to the electronics industry working for Torotel Products. I have been doing mechanical assembly design now for 40 years. My focus is on assembly of magnetic and electronic assemblies. I love to work with people on new projects so Torotel has now put me into a new position to interface with our engineering group and customer engineers. My family has always been first in my life but have allowed me to include Torotel as part of that group and to develop some great relationships with people all over the country in many companies. I am always wanting to share ideas with anyone that will listen. My goal is to enjoy my job and always stay open minded. Specialties: Mechanical assembly is my specialty. I seem to be able to come up with new sometimes unusual ways to put stuff together.
