I design, prototype, and ship physical systems — from precision robotic actuators to production-grade CNC tooling. Twelve years turning schematics into hardware that holds up in the field.
A 6-DOF collaborative arm with harmonic-drive joints and a custom force-sensing wrist, designed for sub-0.1mm repeatability at a fraction of incumbent cost.
A medical-grade controller PCB integrating motor drive, safety monitoring, and battery management into a sealed enclosure validated for 510(k) submission.
A modular fixturing system for high-mix automotive parts, cutting setup time by 60% and enabling single-operator changeover across 14 part families.
I'm a mechanical and hardware engineer based in Denver, Colorado. My work lives at the intersection of precision machining, embedded electronics, and design-for-manufacturing — the unglamorous discipline of making something reliable enough to ship by the thousand.
Over the last decade I've led hardware teams at two robotics startups and a medical-device OEM, taking products from napkin sketch through DFM, tooling, and full-scale production. I'm happiest with a caliper in one hand and a datasheet in the other.
Lead the mechanical design of a collaborative arm platform, owning the full stack from gearbox architecture through production tooling.
Designed enclosures and mechanisms for a class-II infusion pump, navigating FDA design controls and sterilization validation.
Built custom end-of-arm tooling for automotive assembly lines, optimizing cycle times and reducing failure modes on the floor.
Available for consulting, contract hardware design, and full-time roles in robotics, medical, and aerospace. Typical response within two business days.
