Gel Blaster was created in an effort to make products that get kids off their screens and outside physically playing. We have created a line of blaster and accessories that launch gel-like water beads as the projectile and have also created Nexus, a projectile/laser tag fusion that takes all the best digital features and technology from laser tag and elevates it to the next level with physical projectiles and a more gaming like and competitive play approach.• Built and manage the product team in a rapidly changing startup environmentincluding engineering, product management, product compliance, and quality• Executive leader during period of revenue growth of over 10x in one year ($5m to>$70m) and company growth of ~15 people to ~120• Manage product development efforts with both internal and external resources• Oversaw product launches of a multitude of consumer products sold in majorretailers globally expanding the product offering from a single blaster with minimalaccessories to 8+ released blasters and a broad accessory offering• Heavily involved in creation of product development process and product roadmapwith goal to get ahead of the long retail product sell in process• Supervised development of app-controlled hardware product and traveled to HongKong to play key role in keeping project on schedule with successful launch• Review and help draft provisional and patent submissions• Navigated a quick transition from using 3rd party supply chain management partnerto working directly with contract manufactures• Meet regularly with Aisa based contract manufacturers and suppliers related toproduct, quality, production, scheduling, costing and logistics• Examined in federal court related to another company infringing on GB trade secrets• Work closely with sales, finance, marketing, and operations to drive operationalefficiency with leveraging our business system and software tools
