Output-focused veteran for over three decades of medical implant development, research, publications, technology/business assessment, and competitive analyses. From interpreting bench-top results to executing on clinical studies to objectively presenting findings to diverse audiences, including readers of the peer-review literature, I am passionate about how technology can save and improve lives. Also, I’ve developed an interest in fiction writing and wrote Thirdway and Section, novels about the lives of hikers and the fictional Thirdway Lodge along the Appalachian Trail.
