While it would take a long time to explore a lifetime of innovation and technology, it would be difficult to make most of it appear interesting enough to spend time reading! However, some projects and ideas are indeed worth sharing, if only to chronicle the events for future reference, or to discover how to do something unique without any prior experience. Some like to call this "out of the box" thinking, I like to sometimes "re-invent  the wheel" because of the journey along the way.

My formal training goes back to troubleshooting tubes and transistor radios and televisions, but digital electronics and embedded micro-controllers is where my professional path headed. With an extensive library and a passion for creating electronics products, I learned hardware, firmware, software and "everyware" in between. I don't come up with ideas, I create solutions to ideas and my favorite motto is, "I can create anything you can afford!"

Machines that help me build things, are some of my favorite projects and I'm always ready to add electronics and mechanical creations to automate complicated tasks. I've had to become a bit of a machinist and design engineer along the way to tackle some big projects, but that's all part of the challenge of creating solutions.

I have been delighted and honored to work for and with some of the best companies in the world and they have shaped the professional path I've followed for many years. So let's dive into innovation, technology and everything else!
