4 year Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering (Michigan Technological University)
1 year University Certificate in Astronomy and a 2 year Advanced University Certificate in Astrophysics of Galaxies ( University of Central Lancashire )
Diploma in Yacht Design and Naval Architecture from the Westlawn Institue of Marine Technology
Made my first solo cross country flight (400 plus miles) in headwind conditions causing me to get home in the dark. I had no cockpit or navigation lights and used the North Star to help me get home. My father told me that the North Star didn't move. I turned 18 the day before. I then became interested in astronomy.
