Designed and built concept vehicles for auto shows, developed internal vehicle design studies and participated in the creation of future product strategy with Ford's Advanced Design Studio and Brand Imaging Group. Working in a multidisciplinary environment with industrial designers, computer modelers and physical clay-modeling sculptors, my role was often as Translator, being able to speak the languages, and understand the needs and intentions of artists, designers and engineers. Range of responsibilities was from entire vehicle layout and occupant package to smallest details of powertrain, chassis, brake systems, seating, door hinging, lighting, basically everything in a vehicle.

Was the 21st person hired at this, at the time, small start-up company aimed at commercializing high temperature ceramic superconductors. Conducted research and developed program deliverables for superconductive wires and cables through materials research, experimentation with wire forming techniques such are extrusion and swaging, and developing time/temperature profiles for the oxidation of precursor metals into ceramic superconductors.
