Professionally, he designs submarines, spacecraft, systems for tunneling machines, and then it gets weird. Kinda like Doctor Evil, but without the extra time in university. Bart bounced around the globe as a child, including three years in a German public school in West Berlin and high school in Brooklyn, NY. His father, who also studied engineering, gave him an early love of science fiction and fantasy and took him to his first science fiction conventions while Bart was in junior high school. Bart joined the Army after high school, leaving active duty as a sergeant in the 82nd Airborne to complete his college degree. He worked as a stringer for the city daily newspapers in Baton Rouge, La. while studying to be a mechanical engineer and earning his commission in the US Army Reserve in the Corps of Engineers. After working for several organizations Bart started his own engineering and design firm, earning his license as a Professional Engineer in the US and internationally as well as being a university researcher and lecturer. He is a Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers and the National Society of Professional Engineers. He is also nationally and internationally board certified as a Forensic Engineer, leading to giving testimony at the USCG Marine Board of Investigation of OceanGate and the Titan Submersible fatalities, providing forensic review of the National Academies' report on the Arecibo Radio Telescope failure, and other signficant cases. Bart uses his creative abilities to earn a patents in fields including municipal waste recycling, biomedical devices, and consumer products. He has written peer-reviewed papers on topics ranging from military explosives to Artificial Intelligence to ethics. He has provided written and media commentary on a variety of engineering and military topics, including the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse.
