• Designed 10”, 15”, and 22” Android OS-based touch screen computers for Point of Sale (POS) and Point of Information (POI). Design process included: integration of various projected capacitive touch screens, LCD.
• Coordinated mechanical design of a group of ~18 different sized touchscreen systems with contract manufacturer. Process involved: communicating and verifying design constraints with contract manufacturing team members.
• Solved challenging thermal and mechanical related issues during testing and debugging stage of multiple LCD and computer-related products.
• Created user manuals and quick install guides, as well as customer-facing documents and illustrations.

Designed and wrote custom plug-in software and user interface development for the Rhino CAD software application.

Successfully managed the industrial design development of the 2008 HP HDTVs. Process included leading the design efforts of an external design firm, managing budget and schedule, and coordinating model builds for management reviews, working in conjunction with ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) on very tight schedule.Solved design problems associated with.

Collaborating with engineering, corporate design, and management to manage the industrial design development of a new line of computer servers.Directed day to day efforts of other design engineers in the design of computer servers and components.Created CAD files of server components using Pro/ECoordinated full-scale model construction of large servers for.

Created a modular industrial design language for the NonStop division. The design language included a system of components that can build any size bezel for different heights of rack mounted components. The modular system allowed product development teams to create bezels for products by using already tooled parts. This new system allowed for much lower.
