My intel says he got his BSEE from MIT in 86, and his PhD in EE in 90, so its very possible he crossed paths with Dr. Flowers just as FIRST was being started (though not sure how much the EE/ME department interacted back then).

I'm also wondering with his MIT LL and UTRC affiliations if that gave him any exposure to FIRST before. UTC is certainly a huge supporter of FIRST and has been since the early days, and MIT LL has had some involvement & certainly several judges (though he wasn't one of them - I think he was gone to CT before the Boston regional started up) up here in the Boston Area.
