Steve has led a storied career working in advanced materials, processes, and structures for aerospace applications.
Steve started working in the first composite aircraft repair station to operate in the US and since has worked for Laister Sailplanes, Chemtanks, Alcoa/Goldsworthy, and more recently Scaled Composites, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and Virgin Galactic. He has worked on Unmanned Aircraft Systems such as early 1970’s NASA Mini-Sniffer and boundary layer experiments on the F-16XL, F-14 and rain erosion test fixtures on F-104 and F-15 for Shuttle tiles and thermal blankets.
In addition, he has 25 years of R&D/T&E in Low Observable Materials, Signature Management and Survivability. He solved manufacturing issues in DARPA HTV-2 by successfully developing and implementing processes which enabled producing carbon-carbon laminate of required thickness in aeroshells and edges during the Polymer Infiltration and Pyrolysis.
