Gerry Glaser
A business professional with over 40 years of experience as an Information Systems Architect.
With a B.S. Physics degree from C-MU and 3 years of study in Architecture he has found it easy to apply his technical and design skills in a variety of businesses spanning from Architecture, food processing, semi-conductor, mini-supercomputer production, Manufacturing Software systems, and most recently in electric vehicle development and manufacture as developer, systems architect, and manager.
With a passion for addressing the climate crisis, he has worked in his various civic roles as a planning commissioner, a sustainability commissioner, and collaborator in authoring Civic Climate Action Plans. He is currently serving as the President of the North Bay Electric Auto Association.
Having driven production EVs since 1998, the 5 years spent supporting the rollout of electric trucks and buses, crystallized for him that EVs are essentially computers on wheels. It became obvious to him that the nature of the work changes dramatically for the vehicle support community as it transitions from fossil fuel to electric vehicles. Cofounding EVTechU with the intention of preparing the electric vehicle support community for this change was a natural extension of that realization.
His involvement in EVTechU is his most recent effort in supporting our transition to a sustainable lifestyle.
