In fact, another career high point was creating and implementing the plan for the seamless transition with zero down time on operations when managing critical operational needs at the Tesla NUMMI plant.
 

As previously mentioned, there is no task too big for Bob and his resources. During the winery fires, Bob was required to move a 747-jet engine from Florida to California to bring one of the Supertankers into operational status. This plane was crucial to fighting the continued spread of the fires. The pressure was incredible on Bob and his team, they had to have the engine delivered within 3 days. They made their deadline, the mission was accomplished, and the fires were successfully extinguished.
 

Bob is a true humanitarian. When working with Sensor Medics, over the course of 4 years, Bob developed 60 depots to provide HFOV treatment (High Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation). This type of treatment is critical in saving the lives of pre-mature babies. Working all hours of the day and night, these units were utilized on these preemies, who were often the size of dollar bill, instead of conventional ventilators, as the air pressure from those units were too strong, and it could kill them. As rewarding as it was, every effort did not result in saving the baby, and those outcomes were heartbreaking.

Bob continues taking pride in any responsibility afforded to him, his work and personal ethics are second to none. He is the true definition of a leader, a critical thinker, and innovator in the logistics sector.
