Inventor/product developer with a track record and philosophy that product innovation is not complete until it’s reduced to practice and tested functionally for its application. This Design/Build/Test approach has been a principal factor during my career in developing effective and successful commercialized products for the market. My intellectual property portfolio spans domestic and international countries around the world and totals more than 40 patents.Broad training and background in CAE/CAD/CAM/CAT/CNC has provided me with advanced technology tools to rapidly develop and evaluate new product innovations. The demanding technical precision and materials knowledge required in the Medical Device field established a solid foundation of product development assets that can be applied to many other industries.As the founder, owner, and staff level director for multiple companies, I have been directly involved with several contract negotiations related to acquisitions, stock purchase agreements, and consulting agreements.My love for solving problems and creating novel products has driven me throughout my career.
