I want to work on projects that matter. From pioneering flexible draper headers in the 1990s to bringing new product features to market quickly and managing R&D, I thrive on complex challenges. Browse my patent portfolio to see the range — then reach out if you need a fresh design concept, detailed simulation, or experienced project management.
Farm kid turned engineer with 30+ years in design and manufacturing — covering analysis, prototyping, field testing, project management, and patents. I still pull wrenches in my spare time; it keeps me honest. I've also embraced AI tools as a practical addition to the engineering toolkit — because good engineering has always been about using the best available resources.

Engineering is evolving fast, and so am I. I now integrate AI tools into the design and problem-solving process — speeding up simulation interpretation, concept generation, documentation, and research. The result: faster feasibility studies, sharper design decisions, and more value delivered in less time. The hands-on experience is still mine; AI just helps me move quicker and think wider.
Whether you need a complex project managed to completion, a new concept validated with simulation, or want to explore how AI-assisted engineering can speed up your development cycle — let's talk.
