-Lead Biomedical Engineer for medical start-up focused on 3D Printing and medical device design/fabrication.-Primary objective was to develop a system for creation of surgeon and patient specific, custom, 3D printed implants and associated devices-Designed numerous 3D printed Titanium devices implanted in the operating room - Each implant is designed specific to an individual patient following a conference call with a surgeon. Devices were cleared for use under the FDA’s Custom Device Exemption

Virtual Surgical Planning - Reconstruction- Work with craniofacial surgeons to digitally develop a plan prior to reconstructive surgery.-Fabricate stereolithographic (3D printed) medical devices based on patient specific data for use in the operating room. Devices work in conjunction with the digital surgical plan. -Reconstruction techniques include mandibular and maxillary reconstruction using the fibula free flap and other vascularized grafts,congenital defect correction, trauma response and tumors of the facial skeletonSkill Set: Surgicase (software), Mimics, Magics (Materialise), Customer Service, Product MarketingOrthopaedics-Spearheading efforts to implement virtual planning into orthopaedic surgery (Regulatory and FDA experience)Virtual Surgical Planning - Orthognathiics-CAD-based engineer preparing cases for orthognathic surgery-Experience with dental occlusal models, Dolphin Imaging, CAD design
