As a responsible, dedicated, self-driven engineering tech, I have been the sole support for
7-10 engineers for the past 12 years. My main areas of expertise are in Litho TEL Tracks
(Last 5+ yrs), Litho Nikon Scanners (6+ yrs), Litho Scanners (Operations 5 yrs), Implant
(1.5 yrs), Etch (5 yrs). Responsibilities include, but not limited to:
• L e a d e r s h i p : Shift Lead; Mentor to Module Techs and Engineers; Project Lead; Go-To
Person by Peers, Engineers, Ops Managers, and Floor Techs.
• T e a m P l a y e r : Excellent team skills, sometimes with indirect team leadership, greatly
helped ensure green to green availability are optimal for tool recovery.
• T r a i n e r : As a trainer throughout my technical career, I have refined my skills so that I
am able to provide some sort of training as I work and teach those I work with,
including the engineers who I mentor the first couple of months they are on the job.
• P r e v e n t a t i v e M a i n t e n a n c e : Leading the teams during all major PMs, I ensure
everything is accomplished correctly and in a timely manner, and that the tool set is
up well within the allotted time frame.
• P r o c e s s K n o w l e d g e : 25 years within the industry, working in 7 areas, and assisting
with new product development.
• P r o c e s s C o n t r o l : Constantly monitoring SPC charts to ensure equipment stays
within acceptable parameters, and adjusting as needed, following proper requal
parameters.
• B o a r d L e v e l T r o u b l e s h o o t i n g : Excellent troubleshooting skills with process and
equipment knowledge, providing great skills to narrow issues down to the board level.
• C h e m i c a l S y s t e m s : Working knowledge of Bulk Chemical Delivery for liquid and gas
systems.
• M e c h a n i c a l A p t i t u d e : Thanks to my time in the Air Force, I was able to apply my
mechanical aptitude across all aspects of this industry.

new Best Known Methods, operational, and maintenance procedures.
• P r o j e c t M a n a g e m e n t : Have lead and managed to completion projects for equipment
upgrades, as well as cross tool improvements.
2. • T o o l I n s t a l l a t i o n / Q u a l i f i c a t i o n : Provide support with new tool installs and help
qualify them for production.
• T o o l C o n v e r s i o n / I m p l e m e n t a t i o n : Leading or providing support for conversion of
older tool sets to a new technology, including implementing the new process.
• C o m p u t e r S k i l l s : Microsoft Office and other software as needed for tool support.
• S a f e t y : Championed several safety issues, such as creating and implementing proper
lead acid battery disposal BKMs, or provide LO/TO Training. Early in my career, I
identified a bad check valve to a silane during a bottle change. This could have
caused serious injury.
• T r a i n i n g S y s t e m s : I helped create the training systems that developed the Self
Sustaining Program.
• E m e r g e n c y R e s p o n s e : 10 years on the ERT, helping with many industrial issues.
• W r i t t e n a n d V e r b a l S k i l l s : Decades of experience to refine these skills.
• O p e r a t i o n s / P r o d u c t i o n : Even as an Engineering Tech, I continue to maintain my
operational skills to assist and sometimes lead operations on the production line.

Outline of Training and Education 1980 - Present
All my industrial training and experience within the Semiconductor Industry, combined with
formal education, can be applied to one or more Semiconductor Specialty degrees. Here’s a
general breakdown of my education:
4. •Intel - Attended many formal industry specific classes within Intel and the vendors we
worked with, mostly in Plasma Etch and Lithography. Implant was all OJT.
•OJT - Many formal classes in semiconductor process training, combined with on the job
training. For example, the first 6 months in the Tektronix semiconductor factory, my
training included removing a Thermco diffusion stack, and installing a modular Eurotherm
System from ground up: i.e. wiring 240 down to 12 volts, installing the new equipment,
and learning the software programming and operational system, etc.
•Tektronix – Attended many formal industry specific classes in the 2 years I was working at
Tektronix in Etch, Diffusion, Thin Films Sputtering Systems, Lithography, etc.
•United States Air Force – Attended what accounted for college level classes specifically in
the field of communication electronics through the 20 years of service.
•Portland Community College – Attended PCC for a couple of refresher courses that helped
my current career in the Semiconductor Industry, specifically electronic classes.
•University of Maryland – Attended mostly core classes (Math, English, Physics, etc) while
stationed in Iceland.
