I am a professional Mechanical Engineer with an extremely successful career in Engineering Design, Engineering Management and Manufacturing. I have taken hundreds of products from concept to mass production. I have taken 3D CAD designs thru the full cycle of vendor sourcing & qualification, RFQ, Tooling, Sampling, Production Planning, Quality Control and Testing Specifications and into mass production manufacturing.

My greatest strength is thinking outside the box, finding simple cost effective solutions to complex and difficult problems. I am the idea guy, with a history of developing new concepts and market changing innovation. I have an extraordinary mechanical aptitude.
