Description

Rob Tiffany grew up in West Texas and set off to become a Navy pilot after seeing Top Gun. Of course, that didn’t work out, but he found the submarine service and had some great mentors.

He ended serving on the USS John Marshal that was outfitted to serve as a seal delivery submarine. Rob talks about his seal friends and the rest of his career.

Rob got into computer programming and ended up finding work in several high tech startups.

Currently, he is serving as Chief Technology Officer for Hitachi and he credits a lot of his success to his time in the submarine service.
