Sample Projects
Factory Automation
ASRS, Conveyor Systems, Robotic Material Handling Cell
I was assigned as PM several weeks after this difficult and challenging 30 week project was initiated. My post-project summary report highlighted several areas for potential improvement, including design/development methodologies, increased standardization, and greater accountability between engineering disciplines.
Process Engineering & Cost Analysis
Commercial Vehicle Power Supply Units
This project involved a complete product tear-down, analysis of product design & manufacturing, comparing / contrasting competitive products, and implementing cost-effective design and assembly improvements.

Electric Vehicle E/E Reports
Automotive Engineering
I have worked on several vehicle tear-downs and coordinated many comprehensive engineering reports, most of them over 1,000 pages.
​
Disassembly, photography, component identification, system description, report creation, etc. all require coordination, communication, and dedicated effort.
As always, the devil is in the details.
Material Handling System
ASRS, Pallet Racking, Smart Conveyor System
This Alabama project was star-crossed from the beginning: record rainfall delayed construction of the customer's new warehouse by many weeks. Working without water, electricity, or four walls on the building was initially the project's greatest difficulty. But then a global pandemic left work crews quarantined in Europe and California, as well as wreaking havoc with the material delivery schedule. Fun times!
