I have worked in the field of satellite communications since earning my BSEE from the University of Kentucky and my MBA from G. Washington University in 1976 including work in systems engineering, field engineering, business development and executive management including the position of VP and Gen. Mgr. of the Communications Services Division of GTE Spacenet. Since 1992 I have developed new satellite projects and ventures in the US, Europe, Africa, Middle East and Asia. Total investment in these ventures is estimated at $500 Million. For the past 12 years I have been a consultant to the satellite industry developing new business opportunities in the US and in Europe. My specialty is not to chase RFP/RFQs for clients but to identify wasteful duplication and offer a consolidated solution while improving performance and lowering cost without having to deal with cut-throat competition among commodity suppliers of products and services.
