I have been in manufacturing since the age of 6, where I worked in my father's machine shop. After receiving a degree in Physics, I've spent my career working in high tech in the Front Range in companies ranging from small start-ups to global organizations. The diversity of industry and experience has afforded me the opportunity to develop a unique skill-set with competencies in manufacturing engineering, supplier quality, and supply chain management. I have repeatedly seen how poor planning for manufacturing in designs causes delays and long-term quality issues in production. In July 2019, I merged my hardware operations consulting firm with Zebulon Solutions to better serve our customers with product development from concept through to scalable production.
