The ASEPCO team members below are the ones you most often get on the
phone when you call. Each of them is backed by dozens more, in shops
and offices around Silicon Valley. These “voices on the phone”
are also supported by our three interlocking advisory groups: ASEPCO’s
Industry Advisory Board, our Science Advisory Board, and our Founders’
Advisory Board. We are constantly getting input from them as well as
you to guide our designs and service.
The most important member of our team isn’t even on this page! That
person is YOU! Without you, we wouldn’t even be here.
We take our work very seriously... but we still take time to laugh
and enjoy time with each other.

the world for over 30 years in the pharmaceutical industry,

Sales and Business Development Manager:
“I grew up in working in the sanitary industry in western New York, moved to Colorado in 2005 to work for a biopharmaceutical hardware manufacturer, and now work for Asepco. It's refreshing to be a part of a team that is so
focused on their product line. My goal is to share the benefits of that
focus with our customers and make them part of the Asepco team.”

Walt Connolly
|
|
Chief Engineer:
Walt has been designing valves for decades. He once designed
a valve for the oil pipeline that was so big it was shipped
on a flat-bed railroad car. He headed the
development team that designed our entire line of valves.
With his high-pressure background, he is a stickler for quality
construction.
Walt is the reason the valves are so rugged
and robust. He believes that ASEPCO products should be as simple
as they can be made to work, and no simpler. |

Customer Service Lead:
“In my off time I enjoy lifting weights, still listen
to music like I’m 17, and tend to always be reading a book.”
“I enjoy working here because I get a lot of satisfaction
helping my customers. It doesn’t hurt that I tend to be a
people person and have a bit of a whacked sense of humor,
which I believe makes the experience more personable.”

Fred Zelinsky |

Database Systems Designer:
“I’m originally from Western Canada, and worked my
way through college in Pittsburgh, PA designing steel mills.
I have worked with leading companies in the medical instrument,
motion control and computer peripheral markets, with roles
in engineering and management, including general management.
I turned to software development over ten years ago, to help
get ‘friendlier’ computing power to smaller companies.”
“What I like about ASEPCO is that the focus is always
on the customer. It’s a lot easier to develop your processes
and your software when the bottom line is: Will this help
our customers?”
