Ray Fermin - Austin, TX

What brought me to Sechrist Industries was that I was in the process of transitioning back into civilian world and back to running MED ONE Hawaii, but I had a call from Sechrist, and here I am!

Whenever I’m home, I dedicate my time with my wife and kids and of course, honey-do list. The best part of travelling throughout the US is hearing stories from people on how they came to the US or how they moved from state to state. Hearing history and point of interest in current locations.

I have two children; Gabriel, 18, who will be sophomore in college and Isabella, 7, who will be 2nd grade this coming school year. The most unique place I have ever traveled for Sechrist Industries is American Samoa.

In my free time, I ride motorcycles and compete in basketball tournaments.

Barry Baker - Pensacola, FL.

I have worked in various capacities at Sechrist since 2014. My current role is Vice President of Technical Services.

I began a career in diving in 1982. This was a pathway that led to me working in clinical hyperbaric therapy in 1990.

Since that time, I have worked at hospital and clinic based hyperbaric facilities, both multiplace and monoplace, developed clinical start-up hyperbaric programs, and in business development with chamber manufacturing.

I am part of a team that supports Sechrist clients and each other to ensure everybody is as happy as dogs in a pile and nobody ever complains coz we don't want to hear it. LOL.

I believe that customer satisfaction is of paramount importance and my team strives to provide great care and service.

Don Adams - Tampa, FL.

I have worked in Hyperbarics for over 38 years. I began my Naval career as a Deep Sea Diving Independent Corpsman. I have lived in Tampa for 11 years. I like to fish and work out at the gym on my time off.

The best part of traveling is meeting different people all the time and seeing different parts of the country. I am a history buff so traveling to Gettysburg ,Vicksburg , Savannah, Charleston and several other historic sites is interesting especially since I got to dive on the USS Monitor in my Naval career.

I believe my world travels have enhanced my horizons and opened my mind to make me more open minded and culturally aware of other people’s perspectives and world views.
