About me

I was born and raised in Buffalo, New York USA, but I have travelled widely.
I am fairly well read, and maintain an active interest in current events.

I have a BS in Electrical Engineering and an MBA from the State University of New York at Buffalo.
I have worked as an Electrical Engineer, Project Manager, and Business Development Manager for major companies including General Motors, Emerson Electric and Dunlop Tire Company.

I am now the Regional Manager for JF Automation USA, an 11 year old, international electrical engineering company.
In the past 2 years we have completed projects in the USA, Canada, Mexico and China.
JF Automation USA is always looking to provide modern industrial control technology to manufacturing companies; including PLCs, CNCs, Operator Interfaces and instrumentation. Our specialty is Siemens PLCs, inverter or servo drives, motors, and controls.

I have previously worked on several assignments in Ukraine, including work for the investment bank Lehman Brothers International.
I have been to Ukraine many times, including two trips as an International Election Observer, including the recent Presidential Elections on May 25, 2014.

Right now, it is important for the free world to assist Ukraine in defending against the current Russian war of invasion and aggression.
In the long run, I am very enthusiastic about Ukraine’s future, as a democratic, and prosperous European country.
Ukraine’s economic success, and the evolution of democratic freedoms, are the best guarantees for long term stability, and should serve as a beacon to those Russian people that also wish to join the civilized world.
