| Occupation | Traffic Signal Engineer |

| Location | Vancouver, Washington, United States |
| Introduction | I graduated from the University of Washington with a BSCE in 1993. I passed the EIT exam on my first try in 1994. I passed the Professional Engineer exam on the first try in 2000. I have worked as a construction inspector, civil designer, traffic engineer, now as a traffic signal engineer. I have lots of experience running software like EMME/2, TModel2, VisSim, VisSum, Synchro / SimTraffic, Naztec Streetwise, Econolite Aries, Traconet, LM System, and many others. I have extensive experience running multiple generations of Naztec, Traconex, Peek, LMD, and Econolite traffic signal controllers. I even had some VS-Plus controllers in the field... You get a special prize if you have any idea of what that short lived experiment was. I have worked on 170's with Wapiti software, but that was a long time ago. I much prefer the newer, more robust equipment. I am implementing Ethernet over fiber and copper communications networks for traffic signals. |
