Bryan was born and raised on the West Coast, and considers anything east of the Cascades to be a bit off.
Growing up, he watched the amazing things that NASA was doing with the Space Shuttle and space exploration and wanted to be a part of that. He joined the Navy, volunteered for submarine service, and trained in Navel Nuclear Propulsion Systems. Thinking once we had thousands of people in space, he would have some fantastic credentials to get up there. Lets hope SpaceX can get things moving so he can still have a chance to visit the stars.
Currently Bryan is a Maintenance Engineering Technician at Cabot Microelectronics.
Past work experience includes: 19 years at Intel performing maintenance on a variety of tool sets, mostly in high vacuum plasma deposition type tools, couple years maintaining robots and automation systems. Also spent a number of years as a Gymnastics coach and Pizza cook to round off some of the technical edges.
