Bio

With more than 35 years' experience in the industry, I have been part of teams that have successfully created custom automation solutions for customers in many different application areas. This experience allows me to provide technical and strategic leadership to my present stable of company directors, engineers, project managers, as well as Sales. The reward is seeing their skills improve along with their confidence in dealing with customers and internal team members. I am an active member of the ANSI/RIA R15.06 Robot Safety Standard committee since 2002 and the ANSI/RIA R15.08 Industrial Mobile Robot Standard committee since its inception. I also serve the A3-OSHA-NIOSH Alliance Team, the U.S. Technical Advisory Committee to ISO TC299 for global Robot Safety Standards, and the A3 Technology Strategy Board for AI. Specialties: Robotic applications, Safety Standards Compliance, Reliability & Maintainability, Machine Vision, 3D CAD & Simulation, personnel management, and building business relationships.
