I am an engineer with over 13 years of experience working in product development and medical device research. I have served as a principal investigator or co-investigator on multiple development efforts funded by grants through the National Institutes of Health and the FDA. I am the primary inventor on a patent issued for a minimally invasive surgical tool. Most importantly, I am a father of three amazing children, I am a husband, and I am a tinkerer in the little spare time left over.
