Growing up, Eric spent time in the garage with his dad taking apart things and putting them back togetherโalways with leftover parts in the end. He also remembers growing up with a computer, something now commonplace, but so special back then. Together, these experiences make sense why he became a Controls Engineer later in life. ย

Eric started as a Controls Engineer Intern at Delta Tau with the responsibility of converting manual mills to CNC controlled mills. He later went on to B&R Industrial Automation where he was one of the SoCal regional engineers. Here he learned to design and wire electrical cabinets, design and build HMIs, and write software to automate many different types of equipment.
