Over 25 years in the fitness equipment and bicycle industries bringing to the table a well-rounded professional perspective. From Mechanical Engineer designing products to head of Product Development & Quality ensuring manufacturing process and sourcing excellence, my expertise covers a wide spectrum of technical disciplines. With experience in technical field service training and being an avid user of fitness and bicycle equipment, I can also relate well with the plaintiff’s side of a product liabilities claim. I have provided testimony and sat as the most knowledgeable defense party on over 65 depositions as well as participated in mediations and litigations in the states of Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, New Jersey, New York, Texas as well as well as internationally in Canada, China, and Hong Kong. During college and after graduation, I was employed as a Mechanical Designer then Mechanical Engineer in the bike industry for Profile Design & Primo Products. I later transitioned into the fitness industry in 2005 as a Senior Mechanical Engineer for Unisen, Inc DBA Star Trac. I currently serve as the Vice President of Global Product Development & Quality for Core Health & Fitness, LLC which is headquartered in Vancouver, WA.
