Ammonia Program Instructor
I have been in the industry since 1974 being exposed to the self alarming refrigerant early in my career. I have serviced and installed equipment in a lot of different food processes. The industry has moved from the physical operation to more electronic operation through automation. The ability to change the operation of a engine room with the click of a mouse makes training more important today than ever. The one thing that is still the same is that there are a lot of really good people in this industry.

Automation Program Coordinator
Originally hired by the college to teach irrigation technology, Gerald (Jerry) Hundley, the founder of the ammonia training program, “drafted” me for the automation portion. My background in computers as a result of my engineering training, I suppose, was one of the mitigating factors in this selection. I have been teaching seminars since 1995. Although my background was agricultural rather than industrial, I have utilized internships in industry for experience and appreciate the problems facing the maintenance/electrical technician in the work place. If you enroll in a Programmable Controller (PLC), Electrical Motor Control, Frequency Drive, or Fluid Power (Hydraulics or Pneumatics) seminar, you will meet me.
