Bob Y.

I graduated from Hawkeye Institute of Technology (now Hawkeye Community College) in Waterloo, Iowa and started to work for Rockwell Collins in Cedar Rapids, Iowa as an Electronics Test Technician.  I worked there for 10 years eventually moving up to Software Engineer.  During this time I obtained my degree in Computer Science at Mount Mercy in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.  I also start to use LabVIEW as my chief programming language.  After getting my degree, I sent out a few resumes to see what I was now worth.  I got a job offer from National Instuments and accepted a position in their LabVIEW group in Austin, Texas.  While there I helped develop the Report Generation VIs as well as the Express VIs.  I worked there for 5 years before returning to Iowa.

I am now employed at DISTek Integration, Inc. in Cedar Falls, Iowa.  We do system integration and use LabVIEW and National Insturments hardware to create custom solutions for our customers.  We are a National Instruments Alliance Partner in Iowa and Illinois.
