About

I am a London-based product design engineer with an amazing track record of leading high-level complex products in a range of industries.

I am currently COO and Head of Engineering at a medical device startup developing breakthrough cancer staging medical technologies. Here I work with leading scientists at MIT to revolutionize anatomical pathology.

I have experience in a range of industries including:

- Medical
- Optical
- Consumer Electronics
- High End Consumer Products
- Low-Cost Consumer Products
- Power Tools

I have managed complex products from an idea all the way through to mass manufacturing with strong skills in all areas of product development.

Key Skills Include:

- Design For Manufaturing
-- CNC
-- Sheet metal
-- Injection Molding
-- 3D Printing
- Plastic Part Design
- Design for Assembly
- 3D Modelling
- Regulatory
- Electonic Prototyping
- 3D Printing
- Photorealistic Rendering

My aim is to use CadCroud to keep my lesser practiced creative skills alive that I don't get to use as often day today.

I am also happy to give advice to anyone new to the difficult product development process, just a single conversation could be the difference between a costly failed project and an industry-leading product.
