Product Developer with Systems Experience

I turn concepts into reality. HatchPoint is the research and development company that I founded in 2001. Although a mechanical engineer by training, I have also become an expert in circuit design with an emphasis on low power wireless sensors and instruments. As HatchPoint has evolved I’ve expanded my skills beyond engineering, with experience in fund raising, project management, intellectual property, and FDA regulatory concerns. I am a business development consultant for start ups as well. HatchPoint has begun to grow internal concepts into products. Autonomy Medical (previously Compliant Games) is an mHealth platform started at HatchPoint that helps prevent and treat respiratory diseases in children. While I enjoy the technical aspects of product design, I have also grown to appreciate the business development necessary to bring products successfully to market. Technical Specialties: • Software development including embedded and desktop development (C/C++, Python, Assembly) Web-based applications (Pyramid, TurboGears), database (mySQL, MongoDB), and Linux device drivers • Electronics design (Pulsonix EDA, EagleCAD, KiCad, Mentor PADS) with an emphasis on embedded electronics and sensors using ARM MSP, and AVR microcontrollers. • Mechanical design and CAD (SolidWorks, Pro/E, Fusion 360) • Prototyping using SLA, molding, or vacuum forming as well as manual or CNC machining. • Small batch PCB assembly for prototyping and evaluation including small-pitch surface mount and RF components. Startup Experience: • Developing fundraising business plans and pitches for fundraising. • Raising seed round funds for two startups. • Modeling financials for predicting capital requirements and developing sales models. • Working with consultants to meet FDA 510(k) and IEC 60601 regulatory process.
