Communicate with customers to design, optimize and deliver thermal solutions for the electronics industry by utilizing heat sinks/heat pipes, cold plates and other creative resources. Our objective is to create a strong relationship with customers built on the consistency of providing cooling equipment to successfully meet their needs for performance, cost and lead-times. My efforts are strongly placed with keeping my design efforts malleable where our customer's needs are almost always solidified. This approach is effective for constantly moving forward with a creative perspective to always push the envelope while maintaining performance, manufacturability and cost.

Design and implement new prototype concepts for electronics cooling systemsMaintain program development for several concurrent projects to meet a high-level of performance, costing, and mechanical expectations required by customersUtilize SolidWorks Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD Flow-Sim) program to verify design conceptsDevelop 3-D solid models and represent thermal/fluid conditions of environment in modelGenerate concise reports outlining results of thermal analysis for presentation to customerWork with sales team, customers, and manufacturing to deliver prototype and production orders on time and under budget.
