I have a BSME degree from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in Terre Haute,In. I own my own company that does Contract Production CNC Machining. We specialize in machining high temp alloys used in the Gas Turbine and Aerospace industries. I served in the United States Coast Guard as an Aviation Machinist Mate and flew Search and Reascue Missions in both Helicoptors and Fixed Wing Aircraft out of St. Petersburg, Fl in the late 60's. I met my wife while serving there. We have two children. My wife and I like to travel on our '06 GL1800 Goldwing when we can get away.
