Gary is recognized as an expert in the low voltage technology industry with a resume that includes experience in consulting, design, engineering, operations management, mergers and acquisitions, marketing and sales.

Using his graduate and post graduate education in Finance and Information Systems Analysis as a foundation, Gary's career sparked quickly in the Information Technology and Service Industries as an essential executive providing sales and operational management to both small and large public and privately held companies along with several start-up ventures. Having a passion for the advances in technology arrangements in the areas of computers, telecommunications, and security has evolved into his establishment of new enterprises and development of new products.

New product development is a priority within Gary's current company, Visionary  Systems. His drive for developing started long ago: while at AT&T, he placed the first Digital Data Service Line for a financial institution in Texas; while with Image Management Technology, he helped develop an innovative interface software for optical storage devices operating with UNIX based systems; and he worked with Security Industry Automation Corporation (SIAC) on smart card based transaction systems for the New York Stock Exchange.
