I am a mechanical engineer and have worked in some sort of design or manufacturing setting for almost 10 years. I specialize in helping companies do three things: 1. Making your product more cost-efficient to produce 2. Refining your product so that it is easy for the customer to use 3. Accelerating your development process. I know speed is key when getting any new project started so I get you what you need ASAP. Some of my accomplishments so far -Helped a company that raised 500k in crowdfunding to develop the product they are now selling, reducing their manufacturing cost by over 20% -Helped a company raise their first round of funding by designing and prototyping their first product -Worked with product development firms with large customers to work out kinks in their designs and fabricate their prototypes -Worked with another crowdfunding campaign to make develop their beta-testing product. -Designed tooling for robotic arms to automate manufacturing processes resulting in massive reduction in labor cost I am proficient in the following disciplines -SolidWorks 2018 -Inventor 2018 -FEA (Finite Element Analysis - finding the weak points in a structural design) -Rapid prototyping (3D Printing, CNC Machining, etc.) -Design for manufacturing I work with a small 3D Printing company here in Chicago that can produce very high quality 3D prints with an excellent turnaround time. I also have a complete workshop with saws/mills/drills/CNC where I can build pieces or prototypes for virtually any project. I love working with startups to get their product moving. I like the fast pace environment and love seeing something we work on go to market.

I am an accomplished Industrial Design Leader with 25 years of experience in creating groundbreaking products, systems, services, and experiences. Throughout my career, I have successfully delivered a wide range of products, including mobile devices, consumer electronics, wearables, IoT, VR, medical devices, household appliances, and home goods, among others. My passion lies in the design process, and I consistently prioritize the needs of the user above all else. By effectively translating research findings into actionable insights, I strive to develop innovative design solutions that address real user needs. My most recent role was leading a team of talented designers at Deloitte. I received a BS in Industrial Design from the University of Cincinnati DAAP program in 2001, but spent my first three undergraduate years as a Mechanical Engineering major before deciding to make the transition to Design. My corporate and consulting experience encompasses all aspects of the design process. This includes project management, advanced research, landscape analysis, brainstorming, storyboarding, visual design language development, concept generation, 2D and 3D sketching, CMF exploration, concept visualization, 3D CAD, animation, prototypes, art direction, design for manufacturing, and UI/UX. I am proficient in a variety of industry-related software programs, and hold several design patents for brands such as Motorola, Rubbermaid, Thermos, Gerber, Sanford, Coleman Powermate, Bissell, Acco, and Typenex Medical.
