Where precision engineering meets visionary education — building the tools and knowledge that build the future.

Who I Am

I bridge the gap between concept and reality, at the workstation, the machine center, or ERP dashboard. From designing and machining precision components to building embedded Linux systems, from prototyping autonomous vehicles to teaching the next generation of makers, whether I am leading operations in the field or on the factory floor, I bring a rare blend of hands-on craftsmanship and technical leadership to every project.

With over two decades of experience across manufacturing engineering, robotics, CAD/CAM/CNC, and vocational education, I help organizations modernize processes, scale production, and develop talent. My work spans healthcare technology, EV charging infrastructure, renewable energy, autonomous systems, and making makerspaces for communities and startups.

My Journey

My career has been defined by building things whether physical or educational. I've worked as a manufacturing engineer at companies ranging from startups to established firms, built prototyping shops from the ground up, and developed embedded systems for IoT-enabled equipment.

Alongside my engineering work, I've been deeply involved in education. I've delivered vocational training to thousands of adult learners, developed STEM/STEAM curricula for all ages, and partnered with organizations like Autodesk, SFUSD, and Humanmade to bring hands-on technical education to underserved communities.

Recent Highlights

Community and Making

Outside of professional work, I've contributed to the maker community for nearly two decades. I've been active with Noisebridge, TechShop, First Robotics, and Curiosity Hacked, building kinetic art installations, mentoring students, and helping create spaces where people can learn by doing.
