With a solid background in mechanical engineering and business, I've combined my technical skills with a practical approach to building relationships. My experience ranges from improving project management processes at American Reels and introducing efficient technology and systems, to guiding business development at VPI Technology. These roles have given me a diverse set of experiences and an adaptable approach to problem-solving.In addition to engineering and management, I've also ventured into entrepreneurship. During my time as a Co-founder at Keystone Sales, I focused on building sales networks and handling government contracts. As part of American Reels, I was integral in evaluating and negotiating both the purchase of the organization and later, the sale to United Equipment Accessories.A few notable milestones in my career include:• Implementing lean manufacturing principles at American Reels, trimming project turnaround times and precipitating a 20% revenue uplift.• Driving a 79% product performance leap over competitors at Apergy, coupled with a pivotal automated inspection system project that diminished operator touch-time by 97%.• Engineered product lines that enabled a 500% sales growth on key accounts.• Conceptualizing and championing the Cambelt Student Engineering Program, nurturing future engineers and redefining the Scorpion transloader design to elevate brand precision.But what truly sets me apart is my ability to connect; with global customers, multifaceted teams, or industry peers. I've not just designed products; I've crafted solutions attuned to customer needs. Not just managed people, but been lucky enough to lead and mentor amazing engineers and teams.At the intersection of engineering and business lies my true passion. It's where technical details align with global market trends. As I move forward, I remain committed to seeking collaborations, sharing knowledge, and contributing to innovative solutions.
