The AutoCAD® Trainer Guy

Family Man
God and family are first. Every perfect gift comes from above and the Lord has abundantly blessed my family and me. Since moving to Kentucky from California in 1993, by His grace, He has continued to grow my business. I am very thankful to those of you who have made it possible.
CAD Trainer
Since 1984. On four continents, eight countries, and thirty something states ... so far.
Autodesk Certified Instructor
The University of Louisville Autodesk Training Center invited me to teach their Level I AutoCAD course shortly after we got to Kentucky.  During that time, Autodesk has granted me the following recognition:

     Instructional Quality Award - 2000
     Instructional Quality Award in Industry Training - 2000
     Instructional Quality Award - 1997
Author
Since moving to Kentucky, the following endeavors would have never seen the light of day if my Mom hadn't made me take that sissy typing class in 7th grade.

Speaker
When I am invited to speak to groups, it's usually an AutoCAD tips and trick session on the current release that ranges anywhere from one to four hours. These sessions I refer to as my "AutoCAD Toolbelt" sessions during which I (hopefully) give the attendees the AutoCAD tools they need to get the job done QBSF*.
