Education has been a passion for me throughout my career.  I taught multiple classes at Kiewit University and was heavily engaged with the University environment, recruiting and working with faculty in the ongoing development of course content.  I served on Creighton’s Energy Technology Industry Advisory Council from the program’s inception and served similar roles over the past 25 years at Iowa State University.  I served as a founding member of the Green Omaha Coalition and led its Education Council.  I led the creation of the Connect2Engineering program, which was created to inspire area K-12 students to consider engineering careers. Throughout my career, I carried leadership responsibilities in sustainability and energy conservation efforts.  My wife Linda and I have four children and 2 grandchildren.
