Professional Experience
My purpose in creating this website is to offer
additional detail on some of the projects and
assignments I’ve worked on over the course of my
thirteen year career as a program manager and electrical
controls engineer. My strong background managing
military prototype development programs as well as
developing, implementing, and initiating the integration
of leading edge technologies into new and existing
vehicle systems has me uniquely positioned to evaluate
these emerging technologies and contribute to a variety
of research and development build programs. I am an
extremely dedicated employee with a tenacious approach
to problem solving and I truly enjoy a challenge.
A hands-on tinkerer by nature, I've maintained
involvement in the design and build phases of each
program I've been a part of. For the SmarTruck programs,
in addition to the technology assessment, design work,
and government contracting responsibilities, I performed
most of the wiring and technology insertion on the
prototypes. As part of the LASSO program, I built the
wiring harnesses and calibrated the engine and
transmission controllers. I'm also a fairly adept
technical writer and wrote technical deliverable reports
as part of the synthetic fuels testing programs at
Selfridge Air National Guard Base.
