Milestones

My road in life has been direct.

I was born and raised in El Paso, Texas.

I earned my bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering followed by a master’s degree in metallurgical engineering from the University of Texas at El Paso.

After graduating, I moved to Austin, Texas, because there were more job opportunities.

I proceeded to build my career as an engineer, working as both a process engineer and a quality engineer.

After about 12 years as an engineer, I transitioned into education and joined Austin Community College as an electronics professor.

I spent 24 years as an electronics professor and then became the department chair for manufacturing technology.

After three years as the manufacturing technology department chair, I moved up to my current role as associate dean of advanced manufacturing programs.
