About Me
I'm an engineer‑turned‑lead who's spent years building real automation systems — from TwinCat motion and hazardous‑area controls to full production‑line architectures. I've designed schematics, written software, integrated robotics, and solved the problems that only show up when machines meet reality. As a manager, I break big goals into clear plans, guide a team through electrical and software work, and keep projects moving without losing sight of the details. I like building equipment that works, lasts, and makes life easier for the people who rely on it.
