What I'm looking for

I'm looking to translate complex technologies and engineered products into customer solutions, successful launches, scalable production, and recurring revenue through technical business development and cross-functional program leadership.

I've built technical and manufacturing partnerships that win competitive programs and generate recurring production revenue, including a four-company team that won a 26-company competition for custom DLP interface assemblies. At PGO Tech, I develop custom industrial opportunities across plastics, metals, electronics, assemblies, actuation, cabling, and controls.

Across Avnet, technologi3, Sumitomo Metals Industries, and aerospace manufacturers, I've led NPI, sourcing, technical sales, and program execution for immersion-cooled data-center platforms, telecom infrastructure, semiconductor packaging, advanced materials, and flight structures. I bring 25+ years translating complex engineered products into customer solutions, pilot production, and scalable commercialization.
