Steve McNerney, Firmware Engineer, President

Steve’s experience as a firmware and senior systems engineer is unique, having worked in industrial automation, motion control, GUI development, embedded software and with medical devices.  As such, he’s a valuable asset to PresenterTek, contributing both towards the leadership and all electronics architecture.

In a previous role with a medical device manufacturer which offered season concert tickets to Shoreline Amphitheater, he developed an affinity towards music and is now an accomplished guitarist helping to mentor younger adults in learning to play the acoustic, bass and electric guitar.  His favorite guitar is electric…go figure!

Steve also spends much of his leisure time travelling and on a pontoon boat owned with his wife Grace.
