    🏆Sold over $1M of my own product. Own 10+ patents all over the world. Been there, done that. 📐10+ years of developing products, for Amazon, B2B, retail, and Kickstarters. 💲Commercialized products from silicone toys, high-end electronics, to robotics automation. 🏭Worked with 60+ factories across the industry in Asia and the U.S. & understands the ins-and-outs of mass manufacturing processes and quality control. 🧪Familiar with various materials: silicone rubber, plastics, metal, EVA, foam, wood, fabric, glasses, PCBs, batteries, glass fiber, carbon fiber, granite, and optical lenses, etc 🛠️Experienced in rapid prototyping techniques (3D printing, CNC laser cutting, factory sampling, etc) 🚧Why choose me to work with you as a product designer?🚧 🔺Want to launch succesful products on Amazon, but need as much help as you can get? 🔺Are you worried about having to keep hiring different people for different phases of the product development cycle (design, prototyping, sourcing, sampling, DVT, EVT, PVT, quality control, MP)? 🔺Do you feel overwhelmed by the whole process from an idea to delivering a finished product to the customer's doorstep? 🔺Do you dream of designing a product with the input from the end manufacturer? So that when you finish designing, you know exactly who, when, where, and how you are going to make your product. 🔺Are you worried about intellectual property protection? I am an experienced product designer. I can walk a client from the initial product formulation stage, to the prototyping stage, and all the way through supply chain management, and mass production stage if necessary, essentially the whole product cycle. I think in many dimensions - cost, durability, ease of manufacturing, ease of prototyping, material availability, aesthetics, ease of use, etc. My work style: 1. After the initial call, I will provide a quick proposal with estimated time based on the client's needs. Regular communication is a must for successful product design. Project deliverables must be clear from the beginning to ensure smooth collaboration. 2. Product design cannot just stay on paper. I can 100% guarantee manufacturability, and make actual functional prototypes of my design for you as project deliverables. Rapid prototyping, fast iterations and constant testing are the key to product success. 3. I am easy to work with, highly diligent, extremely detail oriented, and love what I do. I'd like to work with people who appreciate my efforts, and I will work extra hard for them as well. I do not work with people who are always looking to get the cheapest deal and cut corners.

    When your budget is tight but you still need help with something, I make up for my lack of experience with persistence and a love for solving problems. I’m adaptable and coachable. I over-communicate and have thick skin. Your project will be my sole focus until the job is done. Worried about extensions or hiccups? Deadlines and expectations change and you’ll see me roll with the punches. I can be on retainer or on call. So feel free to reach out if you find yourself in need of someone with whom to bounce ideas, a communicative tester, and a persistent bloodhound that hunts down bugs and issues until they’re found.
