Background

I am a startup founder with a background in engineering and design who has raised over $2.5M for my projects. I am part of a movement to bring human-centric technology projects to the forefront of business and innovation culture.

Experience

Most of my experience involve hard problems that require creativity to solve. Before getting bit by the “startup bug”, I developed new processes and experiments at Toyota that continue to yield savings. I have authored or co-authored nearly a dozen patents and applications on topics ranging from augmented reality to smart apparel.

What I DO for clients and friends

Change is hard — often requiring recognition of sobering facts, allowing people to be wrong, and most importantly, enabling people to make decisions for themselves. Rather than using buzzwords like ‘unique perspective’, what I do most is listen, research, and share findings.
