Bob is a civil engineer who discovered a love of research at the start of his engineering career, which led to researching composites in engineering. After 20+ years in research, Bob moved on to a more commercial role outside of Maine, and he was called back to Maine in 2019 to take on the role of CEO for Global Secure Shipping, leveraging his engineering background, experience with composites, and business management skills. 

This conversation was recorded in January 2025.
