		Dennis Hotchkiss 
		- President & CEO
 
		Dennis Hotchkiss began his optics career in 1966 working at several 
		small and large optical manufacturing shops.  Over the years, he 
		successfully developed and refined many polishing processes capable of 
		producing optical surfaces with finishes of less than 1 Å rms.  
		Finding his niche in the polishing world, he ventured out in 1974 and 
		co-founded what would become a highly successful, world class, optical 
		manufacturing company.  His company was sold back in 2000 and now, 
		with over 40+ years in the industry, his skills are once again being 
		utilized here at Coastline Optics.
