In 1966 I married my wife June and she has put up with me ever since.
In 1976 I was a Startup Engineer at K...Expand for more
ewaunee Nuclear Power Plant and developed a safety innovation that all nuclear plants in the country were retrofitted to incorporate.
In early 1975 we moved to the Netherlands on a job transfer, where I was a design group supervisor for ARAMCO projects.
In the later part of 1977 we moved back to the States and settled in Houston, Texas where we have remained.
I started my own construction and consulting business after having a disagreement about business ethics.
After being a consultant to Shell Oil for 20 years, they made me a offer I could not refuse (godfather style) so I'm the Control Systems Engineer and Safety Coordinator for my site.
