A small
Illinois river-town called
Yorkville, in the heart of
the "Fox Valley", was my childhood home. My parents left the "Land of
Lincoln" for
Wisconsin "Dairyland" in
1966, where I grew up in the midst of Chicago
millionaires who populate the magnificent shore-line of
historic,
and beautiful Lake Geneva. After high-school I attended both
the University of Wisconsin, at
Madison and
Carthage College
in Kenosha. I moved from the southern lakes area of Wisconsin, to
Palo Alto, California in
1974, to work in "Silicon Valley". Barnes House at
Stanford University became
a base while I worked in Silicon Valley and did
research at the I.C. Lab. My employeer was "EXAR
Integrated Systems", and then "PMI" an "Analog Devices" company. I took off for a
year in England at
Cambridge. I spent part of that
year in Swindon (Wiltshire) where I worked for the "Plessey Company" (sold to MITEL
[now known as, "Zarlink"], I
was their first and only "Yank"). I designed a digital Integrated Circuit for
"British Telecom"
at the Allen Clark
Research Centre, at Caswell in Glouscestershire (using
HDB3
encoding). I've since lived
15 years in France, in
this
village

-- where I started a hi-tech Engineering business (and was also involved in a technology store based in the city
of "Aix-en-Provence").
I returned to the USA in early November of 1996 to work in Illinois and Wisconsin.
At present, I work as the Regional & International Sales Manager for this
software
house, but am also involved as the founder of two more startup
companies (my 4th and 5th) ...
