I grew up working in my family's small CNC machine shop and always wanted to know why things were designed and made the way they were. Fast forward to present day: I'm using my experiences running machines in that small shop, designing laser weapons designer for Lockheed Martin, developing manufacturing software at Protolabs, and designing manufacturing processes for iPhones at Apple to create a manufacturing design platform for engineers and manufacturing firms to collaborate, ideate, and share precision manufacturing data.
