I have both a bachelor's and a masters degree in electrical engineering from Cornell University.

I have worked as an engineer for several defense contractors in the following areas:

• Design and development of real-time equipment for use as gas turbine engine simulators.
• Design of distributed, real-time control processing system, utilizing VMEBus architecture, that included multiple embedded processors to handle communication, digitization and real-time I/O.
• Electrical controls design, fabrication, assembly, testing and integration of equipment for at the High Energy Laser System Test Facility (HELSTF) at White Sands Missile Range (WSMR).

This is some of the optical components my group built:

·         I also worked for 2 1/2 years for Lockheed Martin (Perry Technologies) designing and building deep sea Remote Operated Vehicles (ROV).

·         I currently have my own business servicing and supporting business and home computer needs.  I also specialize in resurrecting "dead" computers, bringing them back to life to surf the internet.

• I've been sailing and boating for many years, have lived on a sailboat for several years while cruising the Caribbean.
