Award winning Senior Industrial Designer with 20+ years experience in recreational powerboats and yachts. I recently returned to Brunswick Corporation to join a small, very experienced international product development team after three years as a consultant with projects in China, Latin America, and Europe. North American projects during this time included offshore performance boats, displacement cruisers, yacht interiors (and more) for Bell Design Group, JRL Ventures/Marine Concepts, Nordic Tug, Cigarette, Regal, Rebellion Motors, among others.
Prior to the Recession I had been a Senior Designer with Meridian, Bayliner, and Maxum for 15 years. I designed more than 50 models for US Marine ranging from Arriva to the Meridian 541. Early in my career I had also been a staff designer for Wellcraft/Scarab and Yamaha Motors USA (GKDI). BS with Honors from the Art Center College of Design. 16+ years Alias surface modeling experience.
In the 15 months since rejoining Brunswick I've averaged a new project to mill every six weeks for Boston Whaler, Bayliner, Quicksilver, Uttern and Crestliner. My small group continues a run of European Boat of the Year winners and contenders and has raised the bar for New Product Development.
