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.
