Hello. I am a member of the Silicon Valley North Chapter of the Citizens’ Climate Lobby (CCL) in the San Francisco Bay Area, serving in the role of Grassroots Outreach coordinator. I also lead CCL’s national Presenters & Schedulers Action Team.
Some ten years ago I retired to become a full-time climate volunteer advocate. My professional career was wonderful and muti-faceted. I was fortunate to be able to do a lot of interesting things and lucky to have worked with some truly gifted people. But CCL tops it all!
I spent 30 years in energy R&D prior to co-founding a company specializing in environmental pollution accounting software used by heavy industry enterprises worldwide. This included a product line helping companies account for greenhouse gas emissions. I have PhD in electrical engineering from the University of Washington, Seattle and undergraduate degree from U.C. Berkeley.
I enjoy hiking, cycling, researching and thinking about climate change. My wife and I dote on five grandsons.
