Everything is Bigger in Texas

Summary: OK, I was born and raised in Texas. However, after spending a couple of years in California, (SF Bay Area), in the Army, I decided I really like this place.

After I was discharged from my military service, I went back to Texas and after a few years graduated from Texas Tech University (in Lubbock) with a BSEE. As soon as I graduated, I accepted an offer from Rockwell Atomics International in Southern California. After a couple of years there, I accepted an offer from GE Nuclear to be a Facilities Engineer at the Vallecitos Nuclear Center, and settled in Livermore, where I still reside today.

Now my Alma Mater and others back in Texas are going REALLY BIG into a field that was pioneered in the SF Bay Area: Texas Tech University and Fermi America shared plans on June 26 to build “the world’s largest advanced energy and artificial intelligence campus” in Amarillo, Texas.
