Pasadena, CA, USA — The Hettema Group is proud to announce that Dave Clare has joined the group as Project Director. An exceptionally talented operations and production executive in themed entertainment, museums, and retail destinations throughout the world, Dave brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the Hettema team.

While COO of the National Inventors Hall of Fame, Dave was responsible for operations, expansion plans and the construction of the US Patent and Trade Mark Office Museum in Alexandria, VA.
