Don has over 36 years of business leadership experience within both Fortune 500 and start-up businesses. Don holds a BS in Computer Engineering from Baylor University and an MBA from the University of Iowa.
During the first 27 years of his career, Don held leadership positions at Honeywell and Rockwell Collins in the areas of engineering, marketing, business development, operations, strategy development and M&A within the commercial aerospace sector.
