And because Brooklyn College, the school I had been previously attending, did not have an engineering school, I opted to start a new company in the electronics industry. I sold my companies in the late sixties to one of the Fortune 500 conglomerates and accepted CEO responsibilities for a number of entities owned by the new parent company. In the early seventies, I accepted a role as consultant in the World Trade Center in New York City during its construction period, involved in the design of communication systems for the facility. After the completion of that project, I accepted the role as director of telecommunications at the University of Massachusetts. My activities there involved all of the UMASS campuses, and in addition, advisor to other Massachusetts based organizations.
I am a member of IEEE and was elevated to Senior Status by its membership in 1972. I relocated to Florida in the early eighties and accepted a position as vice president of engineering, responsible for network design and fiber optics with a firm that became the largest Florida-based long distance telephone company in the state.
Although my continuing interest is primarily in electronics, one of my hobbies is writing. I have written a number of technical articles that have been published, and in addition, I have written two published novels. I am listed in “Who’s Who in the East.”view less
