Fred has a rich and diverse background in education, engineering, and recycling. He has a bachelor’s degree in elementary education and a minor in music from BYU University, and two master’s degrees in anthropology and development education from Stanford University. He also served in the Peace Corps in the Philippines for two years, teaching English, science, and teacher training.

Fred has explored many different careers and gained valuable skills and experience in how to make things work. He has worked as a welder, a purchasing agent, a diesel mechanic, a planning department worker, and a field engineer for a geophysical engineering research company.

His most successful recycling project was founding his first tire recycling company that processed 1.5 million tires annually and created innovative products and materials from tires.

​Fred also co-founded a pipe fabrication company that serviced the mining industry for 12 years. He has always kept an eye on the advances in tire recycling and dreamed of returning to the industry.
