My first experience with model rocketry was back in the early 60’s with an Estes Rocket my father, I and a friend launched at an apple orchard. Fast forward to the present, I started launching rockets at our site in KY in 2018 and became treasurer of MC2 in February of 2021. I am slowly working my way up the letter scale from A rated mortars to now E’s and F’s. I am one of the few members with a “grandparent” membership and bring my grandson at least once every launch season. Are L1, 2 and 3 certifications in my future? Maybe, but for now I enjoy adding electronics to my mid and low power rockets and working on my building skills.

Richard is a born again rocketeer (BAR), taking up high power rocketry (HPR) after building Estes rockets both as a child (1960s) and with my daughters (1990s-2000s). He’s an L3 having started in HPR in the latter half of the 2010s. Other than flying his own rockets, he enjoys observing the NASA Student Launch Initiative teams and hopes there will soon be more TARC teams in local schools. A retired software developer and IT security specialist, he does a little bit of consulting, just to prevent rust build up. He holds a B.S. from Southern Illinois University (SIU Carbondale) and an ME CS from Vanderbilt University.
