Married for 37 years, with three adult children, I'm an avid boater, diver, fisherman and have been on and around the water my whole life.As such, I have a keen interest in issues and events involving our oceans environment, water quality, safety, boating and water recreation activities. Since moving to Huntington Harbor, I have worked with several businesses and homeowners,on various issues related to the Harbor,water quality or safety. I am familiar with the issues and policies of the State Lands Commission,Coastal Commission,the Coast Keepers andl have pretty good ties to the Harbor community through various club memberships and activities. It was also my efforts working with the city,several council members and former owners of the Harbor Fuel Dock that kept our community from being surprised with a planned closure of the fuel dock. Most of my professional career centered around Orthodyne Electronics,(1981.-2009)a leading supplier of robotic equipment to the Semiconductor,Automotive, Medical,Aerospace and Power Hybrid module Industries. While working at Orthodyne,my career covered a range of activities and success,starting as a Electrical /Mechanical designer, later managing the design groups,transitioning into International Sales and Marketing where as VP, I oversaw and managed all outside activities, including sales, negotiations, contracts, marketing,equipment integrations,installations, after sales support,oversight of offshore offices, reps and distributors worldwide,and all front office activities at the main office, In 1998, myself and three other partners did a management buyout of Orthodyne Electronics and continued to grow the organization to the largest and most profitable technology and equipment manufacturer in our field,capturing 80%of the market worldwide,with gross margins over 58%. We sold the company to a public firm (KLIC)in 2008 and in later in 2009 I retired.Since then I have kept myself busy with a few construction projects as well as number of hobbies that include travel, boating, fishing, offroad adventures,building/collecting Classic Cars,and involving myself on a few boards, Including a directorship on CU Boulders Leadership Foundation and President of our HOA(Portofino Patio Cove Homeowners). I also currently sit as a Huntington Beach Public Works Commissioner. I am interested In serving as a member on the newly formed Huntington Harbor commission as I believe in contributing back to our community and believe my experience In boating,water recreation,my ability to research complex issues and provide solutions as well as my ability to work with people from all walks of life and cultural backgrounds would be an asset in addressing not only some of the challenges with implementing a newly formed commission, but help Insure this new commission is a success. 57 APPLICATION FOR APPOINTMENT TO A CITIZEN COMMISSION, BOARD, COMMITTEE, OR TASK FORCE (Please type or print clearly) IMPORTANT NOTICE: Before applying, you need to know the following: • All Council appointed commission, board, and committee members are required bi-annually to take harassment training and two hours of ethics training. • You are applying for a public position.

We recently (2+ years ago) bought a home on Sunset Island and have observed first hand how one civic minded individual can make a difference in the community.
