Building products from concept to reality
I'm a Mechanical Engineer with a Master's in Innovation Design, currently working on the Interiors Research and Innovation team at Textron Aviation. I bridge the gap between engineering rigor and design thinking—from CAD models to factory floors, from concept sketches to production-ready products.
My work spans aircraft interiors, manufacturing optimization, and product development. I collaborate with industrial designers, negotiate with international suppliers, and prototype rapidly using 3D printing and hands-on fabrication. Outside of work, I design and build custom furniture and develop my own products—including a patent-pending toilet paper holder currently in production.
Based in Wichita, KS. Open to relocation for the right opportunity.
