An experienced Controls Engineering Manager with expertise in Motors and Drives (VFDs), Control Logic (PLCs), and Controls Product Development. I have a sucessful track-record of developing controls systems centered on efficient, flexible designs that intuitively limit the number of necessary customer parts and inventory, while maintaining backwards compatibility. I manage panel fabrication and technical training, facilitate escalated customer calls, and provide our sales engineering team with the controls portfolio the team members need, in order to meet the ever-changing needs of our customer. My resume boasts numerous rewards, scholarships, speaking engagements, degrees, certificates, and philanthropic activities that have fundamentally defined my leadership. I am driven, self-motivated, and ambitious. However, I am humbled by the wisdom and achievements of Elon Musk, Tom Sylvia, Thomas Edison, Nikola Tesla, and Jim Collins.
