About

I am currently a partner at the product development firm, Shea+Latone Inc. where I work on a diverse range of products. Our clientele covers a broad range of industries from large international corporations to entrepreneurs and individual designers. I possess strong design and development skills from conceptual development to 3D modeling and technical manufacturing engineering. Our expertise at Shea+ Latone in prototyping and cycle testing has made me realize the importance of these skills in a successful product design. Aside from design being a partner in a small company allows for opportunities to take on business and marketing tasks.
