Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States
I strive to use my deep engineering expertise and extensive communication abilities to improve the health of humans and the planet by applying my R&D skills and collaborating in a close-knit team. I have significant experience in engineering design, mechanics of biological materials, man-made and biological material testing, system and component failure analysis, and technical communication, with experience in highly regulated industries.
