Mostly retired, but still accept some consulting assignments periodically.
Other Comments:
After leaving the Air Force and receiving my B.S. in Industrial Technology at SIU-Carbondale, I started my 40-year-career in Fire Protection-Property Loss Control-Consulting in the commercial/industrial property insurance business. I started with Factory Mutual Engineering in Chicago with stops in Miami, Nashville, and ended up working for two of the world's major insurance brokers, Marsh & McLennan and finally AON (who bought Schirmer Engineering in 2001, my employer at the time), in Atlanta.
