computer engineering profession; my current focus includes coordinating
and participating in interactive career panel presentations with Electrical and
Computer Engineering (ECE) students."
"IEEE's mission, vision, core values, near-term goals and key initiatives to
support those goals all personally resonate with me," said Dennis, who's
made annual donations to the IEEE Foundation for decades. He also
