My father, and mentor, first began working in the heat treating industry in the 1960’s, so I grew up “in the business”.  I have been involved in the heat treating industry since 1984.  In 1989, I left college to start a family heat treat company with my father.  I have experienced every aspect of heat treating including shipping/receiving, production, maintenance, testing/inspection, quality, and management.  In 2009 I began working with Performance Review Institute (PRI).  First, as an instructor and course developer for the programs of eQuaLified and eQuaLearn, and soon after I became an auditor for the Nadcap program.  Over the last 10 years I have conducted over 380 Nadcap special process and aerospace quality management system audits on behalf of the aerospace Primes.  Currently I am a Lead auditor for the programs of Nadcap, MedAccred, and TPG.  I have also become an accredited Aerospace Auditor through Probitas and I am contracted with Smithers registrar for ISO9001 and AS9100 auditing.  In addition to my auditing and instructing, I am a member of the AMEC committee B.
