Dave graduated high school in 1977 where he quickly ran away from Illinois and joined the Air Force for “an education and a 9 to 5 job”. After technical school for ATC Radar Maintenance, Dave learned that he had been assigned to a mobile combat unit (combat… in the Air Force… what?) and at that same time, he also realized that the 9 to 5 job his recruiter spoke of… it was a lie.
After 4 years in the mob, Dave cross-trained and began supporting weather equipment at the 17 Titan II missile complexes where quiet is your friend and static electricity is not.
After all the fun in the Air Force, Dave moved his family to Dallas Texas for his first civilian job- running the test and then the quality programs for Marlow Industries, a leader in the field of thermo-electrics. At Marlow, Dave had the opportunity to work with the Litton Microwave and Texas Instruments engineers in the manufacturing and testing of key components for the Cruise Missile’s guidance system- very cool stuff.
Dave went on to heading up the test department at Micro-Pac, a manufacturer of optical components and also as a Metrologist for USIR where he started down the automation path of electronic test equipment.
In 1992, Dave contracted as a Senior Test Engineer for Fluke Manufacturing and was solely responsible for the development of automated software to support their new Sigma Series. Upon leaving Fluke, Dave created Tech-Ware, the first such company to provide customized automated calibration software. Tech-Ware merged with MetPros in 1995 to form Intercal and Dave and his family moved west to Oregon.
With the opening of Custom Cal West, Dave brings his knowledge and experience together with a great team to help make Custom Cal the premier cal lab on the west coast.
Dave is married to his high school sweetheart Lezley, they have two children who live in the Portland area. Dave enjoys anything that gets him outside, including riding dirt and street motorcycles, backpacking, rafting and camping. Oregon is the perfect place to work and play and Dave is enjoys both!
