Skip to content OBJECTIVE = HELP MY CLIENTS ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS
My objective is to “Help My Clients Achieve Their Goals”.
Yes, that’s right – “Help My Clients Achieve Their Goals”!
We’ve connected because you have a challenge that you know you can solve faster with help from an experienced professional.
At our initial engagement, my goal is to:
- Listen to you describe your challenge
- Ask clarifying questions related to what you have shared
- Understand when you need your challenge solved and your budget
If we move forward together, my goal is to:
- Work with you (and your team) and find and execute a solution that fits within your time-frame and budget

PROVEN SKILLS I BRING TO HELP MY CLIENTS
EXPERIENCE = CLIENT SUCCESSES
Experience to me is:
“What Have I Done to Help Others Achieve Success!”
I teach this to my Mentees at Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Georgia (My Alum) where I have had the honor to serve as a Mentor to Graduate and Undergraduate Students for many years.
Employers make the initial decision to interview a candidate most-often based on what their resume indicates they have done to help their employers (the candidates ‘clients’) succeed. Sadly most resumes are not written in a manner to quickly (in under 6-seconds) post this out to a human screener, before getting tossed in the ‘circular file’ (trash).
I believe most potential buyers of any product or service fundamentally thinks the same way.
A person looks at an ad or website and ask themselves “Can You Help Me Achieve Success in Solving Any of My Challenges (Problems)?”.
Helping a Person Overcome a Challenge is what I call a “Client Success Story” and below are just a sample of those Success Stories I have been honored to play a key role in.

I was a co-founder and lead SRAM (Static Random Access Memory) Chip Designer for all of the company SRAM product for six (6) years.
I personally designed 100% of the SRAM product chips during my 6 years at Cypress.
Our team took the company public 3-1/2 years after we founded. Our Series A of $15M (1982 dollars) funding came from my prior company (Mostek) founding CEO and my mentor, L. J. Sevin. Cypress Semiconductor was the inventor of High-Performance CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductors) which literally changed the Semiconductor industry.
I have 3 patents related to my semiconductor work product. (See Section “Other”)
Lowell Turriff (Cypress Marketing and Sales cofounder), I and two others founded this company a few years after we both left Cypress Semiconductor.
My responsibilities included:
- Design of the SRAM semiconductor chips
- All Product and Test Engineering
- All Offshore Manufacturing
I designed all the SRAM chips, wrote the product testing software and setup and oversaw all the offshore manufacturing in Taiwan and Indonesia.
We sold Aptos to a much larger competitor (ISSI – Integrated Silicon Solutions Inc.) in under three years for a nice profit.
