I help manufacturers understand and ensure that their products comply with health and environmental regulatory, customer and market requirements.I have broad expertise in areas including semiconductor quality and reliability, software design and development, hardware design, development, and manufacturing as well as manufacturing processes and supplier/supply base management.This background enables me to help manufacturers assess and improve supply chain risk, readiness and performance, and achieve (and go beyond) compliance with product-related health, environmental and social regulations like REACH, RoHS, Circular Economy and EcoDesign, WEEE, Conflict Minerals, California's Proposition 65 and Safer Consumer Products, as well as performance standards like IEEE-1680.n (EPEAT), and customer demands around the world.I authored one chapter and co-authored another in Wiley's "Governance, Risk, and Compliance Handbook", edited by Anthony Tarantino. I was featured in Mark Schapiro's book "Exposed: The Toxic Chemistry of Everyday Products and What's at Stake for American Power". I am currently on the Advisory Board of the American Chemical Society's Green Chemistry Institute. I also co-moderate the ANSI Chemical Network and am a member of the US TAG to IEC TC 111, "Environmental standardization for electrical and electronic products and systems". I am a Senior Member of the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers).Specialties: I help product manufacturers in a wide variety of industries increase engineering, procurement, and production efficiency, product health and environmental performance, and corporate profitability by ensuring that the optimum decisions about supply base and the environment are made during the right stages of the product lifecycle, and are built-in to corporate strategies, tactics, business processes and systems.I'm also a decent photographer. :)
