Bringing R&D to Life

Nothing quite beats the feeling of creating something from nothing. I have been fortunate enough to do just that, throughout my career, in many different business settings across a number of industries. My experience includes detailing design concepts, defining machine process flows/order of operations, technical writing, electro-mechanical control systems, hands-on troubleshooting and complex machine modifications. 

But the work doesn't stop there...

Successful product development requires strong suppliers to get the job done. I've spent decades identifying and qualifying the right vendors for the work at hand. My resources are proven and trusted - from CAD detailing to prototyping to contract manufacturing.

Always Innovating
