Richard is the senior engineer and Director of Education at the Food Service Technology Center (FSTC), an unbiased research facility that focuses specifically on commercial food service applications.

The FSTC works at all levels of the industry, from mom-and-pop restaurants to the largest chains, as well as with manufacturers, trade associations, utilities, and state and federal government.

Richard’s engineering background initially led him into the power generation business but he happily changed course when offered a chance to join the Food Service Technology Center’s research team. Richard has been with the FSTC 17 years and currently focuses most of his efforts on technical outreach - translating the research into practical information. He has a dozen years of experience creating and presenting seminars on energy efficiency and he also authors a regular column, The Green Sheet, for the California Restaurant Association.
