SOSLIGHTBULBS - Key Persons
Our Founder: William F. Petty (May 1939-2004) began his career in Los Alamos, NM working with the microbiological effects of radiation in the 1960's. In the early 1970's, he decided to work for Zeiss as a microscope salesman where he worked with companies, hospitals, and institutions to accomplish their optical needs. Then in the early 1980's he decided to step out on his own and pursue the dream of owning his own company. With the help of his wife he accomplished this goal. For over 35 years Mr. Petty pursued the field of optics with a passion to satisfy customer requirements and SOS continues with his passion as a family owned and operated business today.
