About
I’m an independent inventor and small business owner developing CrankMate—a modular manual/drill-powered shredding system with interchangeable blade kits and scalable configurations.
I’m actively preparing for licensing conversations with major tool brands and am building a manufacturable, patent-aligned CAD package to support that effort. I work fast, communicate clearly, and appreciate engineers who think critically about DFM, safety, and long-term product success.
Experience with CNC-friendly design, patent-ready modeling, or mechanical product development is highly valued.
I’m currently focused on one project and ready to move immediately with the right engineer.

Experience
- Project Manager Microsoft · Full-time Sep 2018 – Feb 2025 6 yrs 5 mos Redmond, WA, United States I spent 7 years contracting in inventory management, planogram execution, and display design for Microsoft’s global retail operations—helping ship fixture systems I worked on directly to stores across Australia, the UK, and Canada. I now lead product development for CrankMate, a modular shredding platform designed for licensing to tool manufacturers, and SlateForm Design Studio, where I build layered, CNC-driven product lines using hybrid digital fabrication. While both ventures are new, I bring nearly a decade of hands-on logistical and product deployment experience to every project.
