Ron Davis - President

Ron manages many of Sunapsys' largest and most challenging projects. He has many years of experience developing system architectures for a variety of industries and processes. During this time, Ron has become extremely proficient at taking the most complex systems and distilling them into simple components. Systems he has developed have been praised for their ease of maintenance, troubleshooting, and expansion. In short, they just work. When not managing complex controls projects, you might find Ron talking railroad history as he is very active in the Norfolk & Western Historical Society.
