About
I am a modern 4th generation craftsman. I have inherited my passion to create new things and I have refined my skills all my life. My key tools of the trade are: Cross-disciplinary skills, design thinking mindset and pragmatic solutions.
My professional goals are to produce value in the form of competitive and mass produced products. Over the years I have acquired the skill set to master the whole product development process from idea generation to launch ready products. I can work part of the team or work independently. In all the projects I am driven to find that competitive edge which makes the product stand out. I like complex opportunities and I constantly expand my occupational skills. -
