Volunteer Bio

Dr. Griffith received his Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering from The University of Texas at Austin, and his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, then ranked number one in Chemical Engineering. After working in research on enhanced oil recovery (EOR), he and two friends started a small chemical company in Wisconsin specializing in furniture restoration products. Later, his career took a major shift when he developed a record setting electronic data interchange (EDI) software package for his wife’s computer software consulting business, and provided support to users as far away as Australia. Now, he is doing what he enjoys most, teaching in the hydrocarbon processing industry.
Besides his background in Chemical Engineering, he was also mentored by one of the most outstanding statisticians in the world who also had a B.S. and M.S. in Chemical Engineering along with an M.S. and Ph.D. in Statistics. Dr. Griffith also has a Green Belt in Six Sigma quality certification.
