Engineering Program Manager on Apple’s Packaging Materials and Technology team, focusing primarily on developing innovative new materials and integrating them into advanced packaging designs. My responsibilities include managing the material development lifecycle, coordinating trials, overseeing testing procedures, and ensuring seamless integration into mass production. I collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, including Operations, Product Design, Industrial Design, and Marketing, to deliver sustainable, high-quality, and user-focused packaging solutions.

Here I manage all 3D printers, Laser Cutters, etc. in the Engineering Design Prototyping lab, censuring students of Rose-Hulman to receive real-life prototypes they have designed and teach about prototyping/3D design processes.

Helped lead multiple product design teams and collaborated with second-party partners to deliver innovative accessories for Apple devices, enhancing user experiences and setting new industry standards.

• Played a key role in the design, development, prototyping, tooling, and executive approval of over five unique products, including the Belkin Vision Pro Head Strap, designed to improve comfort and usability for Vision Pro users.

• Worked extensively with cross-discipline and cross-product teams across all stages of development, integrating human interaction and user-centered design principles from concept through production ramp and final market delivery.

• Collaborated routinely with cross-functional partners in the U.S. and internationally, both within and outside of Apple, to achieve design convergence, resolve challenges, and deliver products that positively impact users’ lives.

• Gained hands-on experience in user testing, iterative prototyping, and scaling production processes, contributing to products that uphold Apple’s legacy of innovation and quality.

Make It Happen is a humanitarian engineering organization. We solve real problems for real people. Every day, problems are being ignored by corporations because they are considered “too niche” to fuel financial incentives. Our team of engineers and designers is dedicated to solving these problems and making a real difference in people’s lives.

As a Project Leader, I have been in charge of setting goals, pushing projects to completion, aiding in design and testing, and helping to revitalize the organization after its significant downturn in interest and operability due to COVID-19. My main responsibilities are to drive project and team success and build a culture of belonging and learning while helping to make our clients' lives better and more sustainable through the humanitarian work we do.

Manufacturing support for clients. After DFM and DFA design, worked with manufacturers to scale production.

Worked on products in and out of FDA-regulated space, using design control methods for Quality Engineering.

Project management; client interactions, product timelines, and roadmap creation and User Needs development and analysis.

UX/UI design, cross-disciplinary mechanical/electrical design work, and executed various prototyping efforts.

Conducted test procedures and redesigned products based on failures.
