Mr. Rick Hoover graduated from WSU with an MSEE with an emphasis in computer engineering courses. After graduation, he was employed at HP for 18 years as an engineer, architect, and manager. He's had extensive experience in balancing hardware and firmware to achieve the best cost/performance ratio. From 2000 to 2005, he was the head of recruit for HP at WSU. Since 2005, he's co-founded a start-up in Moscow called Computer Measurement Laboratory and founded All Terrain Software.
