All designs created using ProE Wild Fire 3 Work with the customer to refine the product to be molded Oversee manufacture, assembly and testing of the molds designed, including on-site setup at the customer’s facilities Achievements: My diverse engineering background has allowed me to introduce many new ideas and concepts that have not previously been employed in the mold-making industry, enabling Starbase to provide its customers with smaller, higher productivity molds than those produced by its competitors. Currently working with the VP of Engineering to develop a proprietary concept for a ‘two shot molding process’ that will allow Starbase to offer a unique product that will increase the productivity of that type of mold, whilst decreasing the size, cost and complexity of the tool.

Designed and developed unique hydraulic pumps/motors, accumulators, actuators and valves Conceptualized and designed several innovative mechanical drivetrain components for a Tier 1 automotive supplier Designed Hydromechanical and structural subsystems (i.e. recoil, elevating, and ammunition handling systems) for large caliber gun systems Responsibilities: Oversee projects from initial concept and design through manufacture, test, and customer delivery Supervise and direct the company’s design engineers, analysts, and technicians; liaise with suppliers Assemble, debug, and test components Generate proposals and quotes; assist with patent writing Help derive formula and analytical tools to predict the performance of the company’s core hydromechanical IVT technology Achievements: Author and Co-author of over 15 patents for innovative Hydro-Mechanical Infinitely Variable Transmissions, Torque Vectoring Axles, and large caliber gun systems. Responsible for the design and development of the company’s various hydromechanical IVTs ranging from 5hp electric vehicles to 800hp military tracked vehicles. Currently in the prototype phase, this technology has the potential to offer significant reduction in fuel consumption and emissions due to increased performance and the ability to recover lost brake energy. Key member of a team that designed, built, and tested a lightweight 4000lb 155mm howitzer to replace the army’s existing 9000lb weapon. Starting from a clean sheet design, the first shot was fired less than 1 year from project commencement I continue to work for FTI in a Consultant capacity, providing design work and expertise on a variety of projects.
