My skill-set and experience is broad. I am a "sword for hire" for those that need swift and sharp technical mechanical design work completed and a guru for sustaining engineering. The majority of my experience is with lithium-ion battery design engineering, launch and ramp in large-scale manufacturing however I also have experience with forensic engineering and lithium-ion cell mechanical R&D. My most notable career-highlight is creating a global sustaining-engineering model and building a team-structure to execute thereto. I've done this twice, once for DeWalt's highest-volume lithium-ion battery product (>10 production lines in 3 factories globally) and again for Tesla's Model 3/Y legacy battery production (2 Giga-factories). I developed an assortment of methods, best-practices, strategies and techniques to define and optimize post-launch product/production sustaining.

I help companies develop products that customers love and manufacturers can build. Over the past 30+ years, I have led the development of consumer, medical, and life science products from early concept through commercialization. My experience includes wearable, handheld, portable, desktop, laboratory, vehicle-mounted, and outdoor products, ranging from highly cost-sensitive consumer devices to complex technical systems. My expertise includes product architecture, value engineering, plastics design, tolerance analysis, design verification, failure analysis, supplier development, and global manufacturing. I work closely with cross-functional teams to balance performance, reliability, manufacturability, schedule, and cost while maintaining a relentless focus on the end-user experience. I enjoy solving difficult engineering problems, simplifying complexity, and creating products that are elegant, robust, and practical. Whether improving an existing design or developing a new product from the ground up, my goal is always the same: deliver meaningful value to customers and successful outcomes for the business.
