This is my second year teaching at Fountain Inn High School on the Career & Technology Education (CTE) Team. Loretta, my wife of over 26 years, and I moved back to Greenville in 2023 after my career moved us to Georgia (1995-2011) and then Virginia (2011-2023). We have two adult children, Jay & Ryan.
I am a retired Manufacturing Operations Executive with over 30 years of industry experience. Most of those years, I spent with Collins Aerospace, now a division of Raytheon Technologies. I supported over 20 sites across the US, UK and Australia. I was responsible for an organization of over 1200 employees who produced over $1.2B of equipment ranging from flight simulators, to ejection seats & energetics, to strategic command & control systems, as well as brazed aluminum aircraft equipment cooling chassis, machined parts and cable assemblies.
I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Industrial Engineering from California State Polytechnic University, Pomona (BSIE) and a Master in Business Administration (MBA) from The Darden School of Business at The University of Virginia.
