  • About

    I bring over 9 years experience in consumer-centered product design and development for industry leading companies. Throughout my career I have consistently proven versatility and creative adaptability by successfully learning new industries to bring numerous products to market, securing multiple patents along way. I enjoy all aspects of the innovation process - from "concept to cradle", especially when the ideas are big, disruptive, and meaningful.

    Armed with an MBA, I am confident my passion for delighting the customer, understanding of technology, and business acumen, will allow me to add value and make an immediate difference at your company. I am currently looking for opportunities to add my talents to a dynamic marketing team focused on bringing even more great products to market.
