I am an electrical engineer. I have a BS and a Masters of Engineering in Electrical Engineering (MEEE) degree from Clarkson University. I also have an MS in Telecommunications Management from Southern Methodist University (SMU). I am a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) and have a PE license in New York State. Product Engineering, Program Management and Project Management are my primary work areas.

I enjoy collecting and trading scout patches and neckerchiefs. My main focus is OA flaps. My home OA lodge was Gonlix Lodge #34 (Madison County Council), which has gone through a series of merges. Currently the new lodge is Ga-Hon-Ga #34 in the Revolutionary Trails Council.

I also enjoy astronomy, choir, pottery, reading,running, tennis and many of the arts.
