Upon successful completion of high school in 1975 he chose to work in the basic trades of computer manufacturing at the original IBM facility in NY. He coins this work experience as the "pick and shovel work" of the hi tech industry at / in the birth place of IBM. In the spring of 1980 many industries began its massive downsizing and out sourcing to overseas countries, argo he enlisted in the US Navy and was assigned to the United States Navy Technical  Center in Pensacola Fl. And so he began a two year period of advanced specialized studies in electronics and Electronic Warfare.  Upon completion of training; duty assignments were primarily in the Atlantic Fleet as an Electronics Warfare Technician / mechanic. Handing some complex systems such as chaff rocket launchers, anti shipping missile defense systems, jamming, deception and clandestine data collection operations for some 140 nations of special interest. 

   After some 6 years of military services; with an honorable (R - 1) discharge, in 1987 he chose life and work here in the North East US. In late 1989 he began a transition and transformation into business ownership. During this period he also found time to study accounting, marketing, law, English composition, civil engineering, architecture and CAD at one of our great local colleges; we have three.

   With such a variance of interests and expansive professional needs it proved very difficult to remain an employee. Argo the compulsion towards a more entrepreneurial assertion began in 1990. This decision is evident in what can be seen today. Activities such as purchasing a decrepit and destitute commercial buildings in one of the cities most impoverished and jobless areas. Restoring the property from an abandoned and betrayed condition to a fully operational and tax paying fabrication shop. Actions such as this will benefit the community for many years into the future.

   Many individuals ask the question “after working in tech stuff why change to something like engineering and welding? " Part of the answer is that some persons and nations can have all of the technologically advanced equipment in the world and yet still fail. An example of this would be the Romans, Germany, France and the US in Vietnam, South Africa’s predominantly white apartheid government, or perhaps the United States in Iran? The point being; there are always circumstances and states of affairs where the person behind the computer or behind the desks or behind the jack hammer are not fully understanding, aptitude or insightful as they could be. This Is true for governments and or the armed forces which we command. This phenomena has moved the author to seeing the use of tech stuff (computer) (software) (and study there of) as if it were an ordinary hammer in the tool box and not the predominant driving initiative of living, of love, and of war.  Each individual must continue to expand there training, studies and experience to include global strategic planning, US Constitution and how Americans receive our freedom from the almighty creator of this universe and how the state exists at our service and direction to support and defend our lives - liberty - happiness.

   Moreover, most of the answer is located in late childhood! During those early years; ages 8 to 12 or so, the activities such as building engine driven flight stimulation machinery etc. provided the most activity / action and stimulation. Even thought we were children building small boats and go carts, dams and planes, to us at that time, it seemed and felt as if we were building the Empire State Building, the USS Lincoln or the C 5 galaxy! And so later on in life many of us will return to our first loving endeavors in those early years of development. For the author it is designing, manufacturing, building etc. Today It is designing custom printed t-shirts embroidery and wearable forms of art.

   The Future is here. It surrounds oneself and is always present; during each moment of the day. Moment by moment we must chose prosperity, good health, the freedom of choice, defending and upholding the Constitution of the United States. We must also recognize the indisputable enemies we face each day; insolvency, poverty, substance abuse, domestic violence and all forms of tyranny. We must engage our enemies on land, sea, air, at home and abroad, with caring hard work, serious thought, academics, the rule of law, capitalism, republicanism. To this initiative the author pledges all of his remaining days.
