Industrial Designer and Product Developer with extensive experience designing and developing consumer products from concept through manufacturing. Experienced in product development, injection molding, prototyping, CAD, supplier collaboration, and manufacturing processes. Throughout my career I have enjoyed transforming ideas into manufacturable products by combining creative thinking with engineering principles, user-centered design, and practical problem solving. Over the past several years I have also managed an independent online business, further developing my communication, project management, research, and entrepreneurial skills while working internationally. Having lived and worked in multiple countries, I bring an international perspective, adaptability, and strong cross-cultural communication to collaborative environments.

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.
