Work Experience
’93-Present Design Visionaries, Inc. (www.designviz.com) San Jose, CA
Position: President / Bio-Mechanical Engineer Failure Analysis and Animation Consultant

I am a bio mechanical engineer by experience and training. On a regular basis I perform stress analyses and failure analyses on numerous components from large factory machinery to small laptop springs. I have also designed numerous prosthetic devices for medical companies such as, Johnson & Johnson and Life Scan. As head engineer and president of Design Visionaries, a firm of 15 employees, I service numerous industries such as aerospace, consumer products, medical, automotive and military. My clients are an even mix of plaintiffs and defendants.

I have performed many projects that require mechanical packaging, advanced finite element analysis and kinematic analysis. I also provide design engineering services to clients on and off site. I provide design for manufacture (DFM) consulting for consumer products, for all industries. I work closely with ID to ensure the industrial design is maintained, create complete mechanical assemblies and drawings for production tooling from ID provided surfaces and/or sketches. Clients include GM, US Surgical, Johnson and Johnson, Plantronics, Bose, Howmet, Apple, Cisco, IDEO, Lifescan, Optiled and Many others. I provide full kinematic analysis (computer simulation) to the Medical, Industrial and Legal fields. I provide computer aided design and simulation training to world wide audience and authored no less than six books and numerous articles on the subject.
