I'm trying very hard to get some good DD for the board, but I need an answer to this question. Please!
Is this "Thomas Butt" still with or connected to Wave??? Sorry if it seems like a stupid question, but I really need to know.
Thanks,
Dave
Thomas Butt
Butt, the son of an accountant and credit manager who encouraged his interest in technology and engineering. High school physics, Butt says, made him realize that physics was a "foundation field" that helped foster "a clear, organized way of thinking. Physics was hard, so it seemed that everything else would then be easier." He received his BS in physics in 1981 from St. Joseph's University in Philadelphia.
Butt had graduated from college "without ever logging into a computer," but then immediately bought a Radio Shack PC and became interested in programming. He studied electrical and computer engineering at RPI, and transitioned into computer-related work on the job. "It became fascinating to me." He then switched fields to work with G.E. Aerospace on government and commercial satellites in Valley Forge, and continued taking courses at Villanova. He finally moved up to Princeton with Astro Space, and transitioned through the corporate changes to Martin Marietta and Lockheed Martin, before moving to Wave.
