I have a Masters Degree in Engineering Mechanics. I began my career working in the R&D lab of Westvaco and authored a paper on Acoustic Leak Detection in Recovery Boilers which was later patented. I moved on to Mosinee Converted Products as Technical Director, then into product development and sales. I then joined Michelman in sales and moved into new business development and then sales and marketing management. My primary interests are new business development based on aligning strategy and product development.Specialties: HP Indigo printing primers, heat-seal and other various functional coatings, primarily for paper packaging of all types.
