ABOUT ME

Prior to my expedition into teaching of late, I have worked exclusively out of the Automotive & Medical Device Industries.  In having graduated with a BSME in Engineering out of Wayne State University in Detroit, MI.  I'm currently working out of a role that combines that of consulting and graduate studies at Appalachian State University.  

While engaged within my Industry, I operated as a machinist, project manager and manufacturing engineer.  This included several firms involved in bringing product to market, both from a contractual & business owner's perspective.  

I believe this background ideally prepares me to augment your education in this curriculum with real life work experience.  This will always involve a focus on “design for manufacturing”.
