Who's at the bench

Mechanical engineer in lithium-ion battery R&D. Software developer behind CSD Studio and Tandem. And, on weekends, under a car with a flashlight in my teeth.

I design hardware, ship software, and spend weekends with grease under my nails. If it moves, computes, or stores energy, I want to know how it works, and how to make it better.

The Lab

Built to survive the real world.

Day job: Li-ion battery R&D. Details stay at work. Everything shown here is personal or public.

I'm a mechanical engineer. I like problems with physics in them: heat, load, tolerance, and things that fail if you get them wrong.
