I am a forward thinking engineer with 30+ years of manufacturing and design experience who is results oriented in getting product to market. Skilled at Solidworks since 1994, and using it as a tool for unique and cost effective designs which have included consumer, industrial, military, aerospace, and medical products. Ability to apply a vast and multi-faceted manufacturing background to utilize a DFM disciplined approach to products for added value and cost savings. I am a self-starting engineer that is always “hands-on”. I can manage and direct all aspects of a product/s or project/s concurrently from conception to the shipping container. Maximum value for minimum cost is the underlying philosophy of design and execution of product with customer satisfaction and perceived value the goal.

I am a Mechanical Engineer looking for remote, part time work only. I have 5 decades of experience as a Design Engineer and a Manufacturing Engineer in various industry categories, including: Automotive, Consumer Products, Industrial Products, Medical Devices, Outdoor / Sporting Goods, Packaging and Contract Assembly, among others. I have a wealth of experience in real-world problem solving of design and manufacturing issues, including the design of fixtures, gauges and assembly aids, to ensure the efficient assembly of products. I have done a lot of work with inventors who have product ideas but have no idea how to document them (3D CAD models and 2D drawings [used to be called “blueprints” for you old-timers], much less manufacture them. For example, I had one client, a surgeon, who had an idea for a very ingenious surgical instrument. We had one 90 minute phone call, followed by many email exchanges, that resulted in a fully designed and documented surgical tool. It can be done! Visit my website to get a grasp of the kind of work I do and have done. Spoiler Alert: The really neat products are not there because of Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) in place.
