Rick was the most successful Program Manager with responsibility for some of the key projects associated with FEAD-Front Engine Accessory Drive programs and was instrumental in the launch of both GM, Ford and Chrysler programs valued in excess of $ 100 Million. He was a tireless worker and accomplished more in a single day than most project engineers accomplish in an entire week.

Rick is a true automotive professional with broad experience including: manufacturing, engineering, program management, new product development, plant launch and commercial management.
