I graduated with BSEE from Santa Clara in 1984. I
then worked for Westinghouse in Sunnyvale, as an
Engineer till 1992. I worked with inner-city kids,
in my free time for Bayshore Christian Ministries,
and owned a home, in E Palo Alto. It was a very
rewarding experience, seeing some kids choose a
better way besides, gangs, violence and drugs.
I then moved to Tri-Cities and Yakima, WA and worked
in a variety of engineering and supervisorial duties,
at the Hanford DOE Facility, for Westinghouse Hanford
Co. I also got a MBA from City University.
In 1996 I took a Engineering Position at Tavis Corp
in the scenic and historic town of Mariposa. I
enjoyed my pleasant commute, North on Highway 49,
from Oakhurst & Ahwahnee.
I have been working for Raytheon in Tucson since
2001. I very much enjoy the camping and hiking
opportunities near Tucson.
I was married to Lisa in 1992 and have 4 beautiful
children, Cynthia 17, Dominic 14, Monica 12 & Anna
10. Lisa and I separated in 2007 and
our divorce was finalized in April 2010, but life goes
on! We get along OK so that makes it better for the
kids.
A little long winded, but that is some of my life
story since 1980. I can't believe it has been 30
years. I only made the 10 year reunion. Does
anybody know of any other Awaltians that live in AZ?
I am looking forward to the 30 year reunion on July 24
in San Jose.
