I have been part of East Georgia College for four years now, and I am still very excited about joining the faculty to teach Mathematics and Information Technology and being part of the East Georgia College community.  I am here after spending 31 years with Bell Telephone Laboratories and the companies that grew out of AT&T.  My experience in the high tech industry includes managing teams that helped develop, test, and launch AT&T's Telstar 3 and Telstar 4 satellites.  I returned to Georgia in 1995 and led a group that did research and development in high speed fiber optics that contributed to a large  increase in the digital capacity and connectivity domestically and internationally. Most recently I have been part of the management team at Agere Systems (a spin-off of Lucent Technologies) that developed, tested, and brought to market highly secure wireless (WiFi) products that provide high speed access to the internet.

Mathematics is the discipline that underpins all of the technologies that I have been associated with including Physics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, and Information Technology.   I continue to enjoy working with the students, faculty, administration, and staff at East Georgia as the students pursue their education and career interests.  I would be delighted to talk with any students interested in high tech careers.
