What is Genesis One? |  | | | Mikes Business Card |
I have been a creative guy most of my life. I think it has a lot to do with my Dad who was born in 1914 and lived as a poor polish immigrant's son, and had to drop out of school in the 6th grade to help support his family during the last big depression.
My Dad saw utility in everything, and thought himself to be a machinist, electrician,wood worker, TV repairman, plumber, and auto mechanic. I was his helper, and picked up lots of cool out of the box ways of fixing things and solving problems.
My career started right after high school in the army where I trained as a field carrier and radio technician, and got my basis in electronics.
When I got out of the Army, I got my first job as a TV repair technician. In six months I started "Color TV and Stereo Clinic", where I serviced TVs during the transition from tubes to transistors. After ten years of that stressful business, where I saw things moving towards throwaway TV,s and the end of my livelihood. I took a job as a field service engineer for a level gauging company. After 6 years of international traveling for up to 80% of my year, I moved into the engineering department, and got deeply into designing and building a computerized level gauging system.I became their research and development engineer.I developed many machines and fixtures as well as developing an improved version of their level guage sensor. In 1988, I left the company after 10 years but continued with them as my largest consulting customer even to this day.
This is where Genesis One came into being.
I was back on my own as a technical consultant.
The years of Field service and TV repair gave me lots of one on one experience with all types of people.
I have, and continue to have the pleasure of working with many creative people all over the world, and have
come to recognize that we all have that creative inventive spirit,it just needs to be allowed to flow from our spirit and intuition.
When it does, new connections are made, and new things are created.
I decided to call my consulting company Genesis One.
I have consulted as chief engineer on a medical scanner, laser welding system, plastic forming and welding machinery, optics,and many more varied and interesting projects, as summarized on my business card above,and my old website:
Scrapbook of an Inventor
Now I find my self turning my talents to simple and effective ways to cut our carbon production, and to share it via my website with the world. We can get out of the mess we are in, but it will take a new way of looking at the world, and a willingness to do what it takes to move quickly towards a much smaller carbon footprint for us all. This is the time where we need to find and use the Genesis One within each of us, and together change the way we live towards a sustainable lifestyle.
