For the past 19 years, I have committed my time, energy and personal resources to work as an instructor and manage a extension project at Michigan State University. Now that Ive completed my B.S. degree in Technology Management, I aspire to be part of something bigger. I want to combine my past collective skills and knowledge with the academic experience on a greater canvas. Already, my organization has benefitted by my management performance and the success of my academic endeavors. Does your organization have management challenges? I am looking a project oriented organization that I can offer my approach to solutions, innovation and success through my management expertise.

- 7. Industry Employment For 11 years I was employed in the broadcast communications industry and the consumer electronics field. During that time, my duties included systems maintenance, customer service and supervision. Federal and state licensing was required for these positions. I held Federal Communications Commission Radio Telephone License and State of Indiana Electronics Technician Certifications prior to 1992. I left this industry to pursue occupation endeavors in academia in 1991.

- 10. Project Description This project was located at the Southwest Michigan Research and Extension Center. PI Was Dr. Eric Hanson. My duty was to design a system to monitor the water flow from drain tiles originating from a cranberry bog, sample the water output into sample bottles and quantify the nutrients. The underground tiles also provided a means to flood the bog during harvest. We designed and engineered the instrumentation system in the lab, but we found some problems once we deployed the system in the field. Please refer to the drawing provided for Case Study #3. Project and Instrumentation Description The water flow monitoring system was in 8 foot deep round man-holes, tiles were 6 diameter. The water flowed into tipping buckets which had sensors installed on them. Each tip transmitted a TTL Pulse to the data collection system located about 1200 feet away. The computer controlling the DA System logged the data, (liters/minute) then upon a set flow rate, activated a digital output channel. A digital logic HIGH activated a discrete circuit controlling a mechanical relay. The relay operated the ON/OFF function of a water sampling pump in the tile. Thus, the computer monitored the water flow and acquired a water sample based upon flow rate! (See screen shot of the computer). Duties My responsibilities were to coordinate field activity with SWMREC managers, plan, organize and implement the resources necessary to meet project goals. This included supervision of human resources, project coordination and budget management.

Project Conclusion The Cranberry Project successfully demonstrated the potential for introduction of the crop to Michigan growers provided a quantifiable monitoring system for determining the potential environmental impact. Other factors identified from our research identified a necessity for specialized equipment for harvesting, soil parameters and irrigation demands. Such demands on resources affect the potential economic break-even point and minimize the crops profitability.

- 21. MSU Enviroweather and Early M粥安鰻 In 2004, a network of 38 remote weather stations. I was hired to provide technology continuity and operational management to the project. The result optimizations allowed the project to expand in size, scope and in 2010, Enviroweather was re-classified as a Program at MSU.
- 23. Typical Campbell Scientific Weather Station
- 24. Early Technology The technology originally relied on land line dialup modems for telecommunication. Costs and reliability was a limiting factor of quality.
- 25. Cellular Data Modem This technology, co-developed by the manufacturer, Verizon Wireless and MSU (MAWN) technologists, revolutionized the data collection from remote locations. The speed of data collection combined with the reduced cost, facilitated the design of Enviroweather.
- 26. Updated Technology Development in digital communications offered near real-time data acquisition of environmental measurements from the weather stations. Integrating the new technology into the system required collaborative engineering effort between Michigan State University, Verizon Wireless and Multi-Tech Corporation.
- 27. Outreach Enviroweather Program endeavors to bring modern technology and agricultural decision-making tools for IPM to growers, researcher and managers. Our efforts now include Michigan and Wisconsin with 80 remote weather stations providing near real-time information for crop optimization.
- 29. Project Conclusion (2004 to Present) The MSU Enviroweather Program facilitates growers in Michigans diverse agricultural industry. It now operates continuously, and functions as a contributor to the national Mesonet for the study of climate change. My contributions to the program focuses on Field Operations Management and technology optimization. I contribute to our annual financial analysis reporting on equipment depreciation, site break-even point, financial statements and Debit/Equity review. My duties also include outreach to our clients, shareholders and program supporters reporting to the program advisory board the shareholders needs and concerns.
