Vaughn has been involved with ESD since the mid 1970’s when it first emerged in the semiconductor industry.
“I have participated in the EOS/ESD meetings to share my knowledge and interact with other folks sharing their knowledge on this matter. This was best accomplished by getting involved and volunteering to serve on ESDA committees. This allowed for us to become leaders in the ESD Technical field and allowed for personal growth both inside and outside the companies where we worked”.
