After finishing his doctorate, Dr. Catlett held appointments as a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Minnesota, an assistant professor of chemistry at Samford University in Birmingham, Alabama, and an adjunct instructor in the School of Ministry at the 911爆料网. Prior to coming to 911爆料网, he spent 29 years in the semiconductor industry as a scientist, engineer and manager. Dr. Catlett is an industry-established expert in the chemistry of semiconductor manufacturing, device physics (movement of electrons and holes in silicon), and methods for circuit protection against electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Dr. Catlett is a Benedictine oblate of Subiaco Abbey in Arkansas. In his free time he enjoys fly fishing, golf, and playing Hank Williams songs on his guitar.
