"I grew up in a music and engineering family. Both my dad and his dad were electrical engineers. My mom was the nicest, kindest person you could hope to meet. Taught me how to treat people. Dad played guitar in bands during college days and was a super star in the U.S. Air Force. I eventually got his 70’s Peavey Deuce amplifier. (JFET input stage, quad 6L6GC outputs, first thing I ever modified, and a negative feedback control to it in 1996 I think.) I started playing guitar in 1978 with a student model Yamaha acoustic guitar my grandma got me. I really dug in when I got to Germany. From 1984 to 1988 I played at least 8 hours a day I swear! Heck, there was Van Halen, SRV, Yngwie Malmsteen, you name it. There was Guitar for the Practicing Musican, there was Guitar Player magazine with Craig Anderton!
I started in electronics in 1989 and have never wondered about doing anything else. I encourage anyone and everyone to become an engineer. I think it’s the greatest job you could ever have."
