Raymond was born on July 06, 1964 to Helen and Raymond E. Harms in Bloomington, Illinois.
He studied Industrial engineering at Millikin University and earned a Master of Business Administration at University of Michigan.
Throughout his professional life, Ray worked with different companies as a project manager, general director and vice president with outstanding performance for his great entrepreneurial approach and work strategies which led him in 1995 to lead the transfer of important production lines from the United States to Monterrey, Mexico.
He was characterized by being a person who enjoyed learning about different cultures especially sympathetic to the Mexican culture to such an extent that he learned fluent Spanish in three months. He ate street tacos in the stalls outside of the production plant surrounded by the production staff, always with his characteristic smile or scandalous laughter that could be heard from a distance.
