My atypical background with degrees in both Animal Science and Mechanical Engineering has shaped me into a creative and adaptable problem solver. My journey from aspiring veterinarian to skilled machinist to flexible engineer has equipped me with a diverse perspective. With a strong foundation in both manual and CNC machining, as well as CAD/CAM software, I am committed to finding innovative solutions to modern engineering and manufacturing challenges.
When possible, I enjoy helping others around me. Whether it’s sharing skillset or lending my design inputs and opinions, I am willing to do as much as possible to move the mission forward.
My wife, Alisha, who is a veterinarian, and I live on a small farm. We have some retired AKC show dogs, barn cats, a chameleon, and a few snakes. We enjoy spending our limited spare time with our animals and going to sporting events at the University of Tennessee.
