The technology I'm most excited about is: A general category of technologies focused on reducing the human impact on planet Earth. This ranges from clean energy to clean water to cleaning up our oceans. Unmanned systems in air, sea, and land can all be deployed in significant ways towards this purpose. My favorite robot movie is: "Short Circuit." I was 12, and already starting to program in BASIC. It fascinated me to think that a robot/ computer could rewire/reprogram itself. Number 5 is Alive! That movie plus another non-robot movie, "Top Gun," ignited my passions in technology and aviation and set my entire career's course. The best advice I ever got is: That's a tough one. I think I learn more from the actions of positive and negative role models than the specific words they may impart on me. I'm lucky to have positive role models in my parents, my grandparents, and my wife and kids- who all show me ways to be a better husband, dad, and human. It's easy to get swept away in the pace of things, and its good to be reminded to slow down. I suppose I wish I didn't need that reminder so often.
