    Hi, I'm Mark Schnitzer.

    As a senior industrial designer | project engineer with a master’s degree in product design and development management, I maintain a strong understanding of manufacturing and utilize my significant experience communicating with overseas factories. Given my interdisciplinary skill set, I am able to see otherwise hidden patterns and make unique contributions. I excel at translating customer needs into product launches that meet or exceed business objectives.
