COMMENTS:
My career in the space program began in July of 1980 when I started working for RCA Astro working on communications and weather satellites.When RCA was taken over by GE during the 80’s I shifted my work on to space shuttle projects such as the CCD Camera that shuttle used.As of 2014 my position is now with Zodiac Aerospace working on Flight Power Systems for Boeing and other contractors.
As a kid growing up in the 60’s in Manasquan,NJ I was always fascinated with Space Flight and now after all these years I am still living the dream by being involved with and helping to build systems for the United States Aerospace Program.Astronauts will re explore the moon soon and also move on to greater achievements by exploring mars and beyond,I am proud to say I had a little part in supporting this great adventure.
