Work Experience
Principal Engineer
Concinity Product Design2009 – Present
I founded Concinity to focus on bringing my skills and experience in practical product design, along with an analytical mindset, to projects in fields including consumer and industrial products, sporting goods, and medical devices. I provide clients with high-end CAD modeling skills in (SolidWorks and PTC Creo) along with FEA capability in both software packages, aesthetic sensitivity, project management, creative problem-solving, and experience in numerous manufacturing/fabrication processes and DFM detailing. I work closely with client teams and other independent resources, including industrial designers, electrical engineers, prototype vendors, and contract manufacturers to ensure that the final design of the product is easily manufacturable, yet maintains the ID vision and desired functionality. I travel to factories in China on behalf of clients, typically 4-5 times per year
