San Antonio, Tx.

I recently restarted a consulting business after being on the engineering management staff of Southwest Research Institute for the last 11 years in San Antonio, Texas. The business is targeted at applying my mechanical engineering experience, project management expertise, product introduction training and problem solving skills to help support my clients to be successful.

San Antonio, Texas Area

Held several Engineering, Management and Program Manager positions at this prominent research organization. As a group manager of a multi-generational staff (Boomers.. X-ers and Millennials), I fostered cooperation and understanding to effectively get the work accomplished.A significant role at Southwest was to develop and grow a Large Engine design and development testing business. The project revenues associated with that business segment grew about 50 times what is was in 2005. That level of success was due to the efforts of all of the large engine team members over the years.

Columbus, Indiana; Daventry England

Worked my way up through the engineering/technical and engineer/management ranks within the world's largest independent engine design, development and manufacturing. The early years were spent as an individual contributor, analyst primarily focusing on heat transfer and fluid mechanics as it related to key engine systems.Since that time I became an engine development engineer at various level and eventually moved into the management ranks.In 1994 I moved to Daventry England as the Chief Engineer of a new product launch, the QSK 45/60. I was responsible for over 200 technical resources on 3 continents and in 5 physical locations. One of the early challenges was quality information flow of all technical specifications and developing a team identity to allow all individuals to contribute to the goal. Although the systems were at their infancy, the team embraced the use of regular video conferencing sessions for all subsystem teams’ to successfully design, procure and qualify the 2000+ individual components to build the first QSK 60 liter, prototype engine.This role, for me was one of the best of my career. The project offered myself and all the team members a unique opportunity to engage with colleagues around the world and intimately be involve in a once in a career, international, new product introduction program that ultimately became a very successful product.
