I am a designer and mechanical engineer. I'm one of those guys that's always trying to think up a way to do things better. I've always spent my free time tinkering on something either with a group like FIRST Robotics, or FSAE. I have my degree in mechanical engineering from Case Western Reserve University. Professionally I am a design engineer. I have worked on everything from commercial aircraft ground deicing machines to electronic shelving labels to spinal and orthopedic implants.
