I am an Entrepreneur, Engineer and Chairman and CEO of Lighthouse Utility Solutions, Inc.- a company I founded in 1999.
I believe that Engineering is "applied Physics"- If you take the time to truly understand HOW something operates, you can "push the limits" on changes to it with no risk of failure. I have also operated using the methodology of 6-Sigma before it had a name. These two principles have allowed me to develop a number of products that will very likely "change the world"- for the better for everyone.
My "formal" education was at the University of Wisconsin (the "Berkeley of the Midwest" in the late 60"s where I learned to challenge the status quo and to THINK) and at Bradley University (where I learned a lot about engineering outside my core practice).
Beyond that- much of my "education" has been from my own research into special areas of engineering plus what I have been fortunate enough to learn from a variety of very smart mentors.
I will always be learning and trying to be "better" tomorrow than today.
