Season 2, Episode 6: Doing the Most | Quentin “Q” Alldredge
Welcome to the LabVIEW Experiment, turning LabVIEW Developers into LabVIEW Experts,
one episode at a time! We believe in the idea that failure is a step in the process to become successful.
What are we discussing today?
Quentin goes by "Q" for both the Star Trek and James Bond connotations. Q graduated from Utah State University with a B.S. and M.S. in Mechanical Engineering in 2006. After graduation, Q worked first at Alliance Tech Systems (ATK) at the site that was responsible for building the Space Shuttle solid rocket boosters in northern Utah. It was there that Q was sent to take all the LabVIEW training.
After Q left ATK, he began working at Hill Air Force Base. In 2016, Q became a CLA and his team was certified as a LabVIEW Center of Excellence. In 2018, Q was accepted as a LabVIEW Champion and at NIWeek 2019 he received the Community Contribution Award for his creation of the QControl Toolkit. In August 2021, Q left working for the Air Force and joined Testeract, as their Chief LabVIEW Architect. Q also serves on the board of GCentral and is very involved in the LabVIEW Community.
In this episode, Sam and Q talk about the many things that Q has created in the LabVIEW Community.
