Seasoned veteran Jeff Luksich has recently joined the Esco team. He brings his vast experience and knowledge, along with vivacious energy and passion, for all facets of optical fabrication, materials, CNC-machining and precision polishing. Jeff began his training in the mid-80s by processing optical blanks, polishing lenses and creating optical procedures widely used in the industry today. He continued to advance his career by engaging with a variety of optical shops as well as co-founding a successful fabrication facility in Rochester, NY.
Here at Esco, Jeff's impact has been immediate by assisting with increased continuity and mentoring younger operators. "Over a my career, I have observed significant changes in optical production. Today's customers want a 10-5 scratch/dig and optics that come out of our box go directly into their systems. I see that as a goal that Esco is making a reality." Ron Schulmerich, Business Development Manager, has known Jeff for over 40 years. He summarized Luksich by saying, "Jeff is one of the premier master opticians in the country today and we're glad to have him." When Jeff's not engaged with a machine or a micrometer, he enjoys home improvement projects, his classic Harley-Davidson, some Mopar muscle, the blues and the great outdoors.
