As a proven leader in Research & Development, Product Management, and Engineering, I am passionate about developing and managing products that unlock new opportunities and meet the evolving needs of businesses in diverse industries. Additionally, I am committed to mentoring and developing talent professionals while promoting collaboration and synergies across multiple divisions and teams.I am currently serving as VP of Operations and Principal Mechanical Engineer at TMAC Technologies, specializing in heavy industrial and engineering solutions that meet the needs of clients in various industries. I lead teams in R&D and troubleshooting efforts to overcome the greatest challenges of industrial maintenance via game-changing solutions to machine development and more. Prior to joining TMAC, I worked as a Research Scientist at The University of Texas at Austin for several years, leading multiple R&D projects to develop patented technologies related to medical devices and industrial machinery. I also added value to the university by building laboratory and testing equipment that replaced obsolete equipment and repurposed parts for new machinery. Among my other achievements, I developed hybrid 3D printed technologies for the manufacturing of complex devices, supporting R&D work in emergency medical care, OR systems, post-surgical patient support systems, safety systems, and dentistry/military operations.Earlier in my career, I served as Plant Mechanical Engineer, Project Manager, and Global Simulation Expert Lead for Gerdau Midlothian. During my time there, I directed a multimillion-dollar capital improvement project for the melt-shop while also leading the adoption of an innovative transient CFD model and various mechanical, electromechanical, and fluid devices. I also devised multiple cost-reduction measures that resulted in millions of dollars of savings. My other career achievements include helping launch a medical device company and co-developing a patented abscess drainage tool used in various lines of healthcare. I also proved instrumental in developing a first-generation enhanced needle drive prototype for Medical Innovations Lab and Seton Hospital and created a cutting-edge multiphysics Dental Simulation for Proctor & Gamble.I am on LinkedIn to expand my professional network.
