Dave Perry has been a science and space buff his entire life. From looking through telescopes at an early age, building and flying model planes and rockets to supporting high tech companies building aviation and space products over a 30-year career. His experience also includes marketing and presentations to all kinds of audiences on a variety of technical and marketing products. Dave now resides in Fountain Hills Arizona, a Dark Sky Community, and is able to pursue a better understanding of the heavens and share that with others through Star Gazing nights and community programs. He has his own telescope and will be adding space photography to his repertoire.
