David's Story
Life
My Spouse
I met my wife at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii at a party in a dorm room at Arizona Hall (an apartment style military barracks on the U.S. Navy base). I was attending another one of my schools. And she was stationed in Hawaii.
Currently she is a Realestate agent, and the office manager.
My Kids
My son was born in Hawaii.
He is incredible. In 2nd grade he tested at the 7th grade level. overall
in the top 2%in the nation. And He loves to learn. He is also a bit of a performer and has been seen in several plays in my local theatres. My son is also an Eagle Scout.
My daughter (born is San Diego )is just as incredible, and is definately a daddy's girl.
Very affectionate just like dear old dad. And my daughter is in musicals, plays, song and dance groups and the high school marching band. And she is National Honor Society and National Technical Honor Society.
My Job
Has changed it was at a factory which had 6 acres of manufacturing equipment under its roof. All of which were computer controlled. I was responsible for troubleshooting and repair all electrical and electronic systems in the plant on my shift. (70+hrs per week)
Well,... That was too time consuming so I moved on to my next job. I am an Industrial Maintenance Technician/ Licensed Electrician specializing in Robotics Troubleshooting, Main...Expand for more
tenance, Repair, and Programming. If you have seen a 2002 through 2007 Corvette, Viper, Cadillac XLR (Cadillac version of a corvette), Lincoln Navigator, or Ford Expedition (just to name a few) then you have seen things that my robots have helped to make possible (I may have even made some of the parts in them myself as part of setting up the work cells). For those of you who would know...I worked with OTC Daihen Dynamic Robotic Welding Cells. And I also work with MOTOMAN Welding and handling robots.
Economies have their ups and downs and I have added Fanuc Robotics and self guided vehicles to my specializations as I transitioned into power generating equipment in a company casting the gas turbine blades for the electric companies power generators. Long hours with decent pay.
In 2013 I restarted my education at Kent State University (after an 11 year break) where I am going for my Electrical Engineering degree and I am attending the University along with my son and soon my daughter It will be a race to see who finishes first.
My daughter graduated with honors from Edinboro University in 2018. I graduated with honors from Kent State University in 2019. My son is still taking courses as a Senior at Kent State University towards his Bachelors degree.
Sorry, but I will not be making it to the reunion again.
