Karl moved to Atlanta to pursue a degree in electrical engineering technology, where he simultaneously became a professional skateboarder. In part due to his love of surfing, Karl then moved to Ventura County where he began a 23-year stint with Schlumberger, serving as an engineering technician and a technical support engineer, during which time he traveled to 35 countries supporting customers and the field engineering teams. After the company was acquired, he moved on to Zebra Technologies as a Quality Manager in manufacturing, where he was selected to relocate the company’s manufacturing operations to China, dividing his time between China and the U.S. for 21⁄2 years. Upon completion, Karl was promoted to Global Problem Manager, and in this role he has supported the company’s customers and partners worldwide for 15 years. Karl settled in South Texas near his two grown children, and is the proud pawpaw to four grandkids. In his down time, Karl enjoys surfing, golfing, boating, and fishing.
