Director, Membership

YETi CGI

We need to stop making things that suck.

YETi CGI is a team of misfits with a strong background in Game Theory and creating Ambient User Experiences. With extensive cross-industry experience, they focus on and dream up amazing user experiences and then bring them to life – with an incredible, diverse team of experts who can make large amounts of complexity seem completely transparent. 

I get to help YETi talent scout for new technologies, architect hardware platforms, and find places where they can add huge amounts of value…but mostly I learn from the wisdom of each unbelievably talented member of the group.

Field Engineer

Bear VAI Technology

Built great relationships, gained invaluable experience, won multiple awards, and had, what I consider to be, great successes - not by pushing products - but by doing what I love - connecting with people, connecting people to technology, sharing cross-industry best practices and innovations, and pushing technology forward for the sake of mankind.

Staff Advanced Sourcing Engineer

Ensuring Compliance of Medical Devices under the design control of Stryker Instruments to the applicable, industry-recognized safety standards.

Created a simple excel macro which took several input parameters and, from them, manipulated the related six tables in the IEC 60601-1 Standard to output the correct creepage and clearance values. 

I posted this "tool" on LinkedIn, and, since then, I've been asked for copies by dozens of engineers in several countries (including members of the safety agencies themselves).

Sr. Product Safety/Certifications Engineer

Working closely with Product Design Teams by relating standards to products and creating inventive solutions to ensure end-product compliance to the relevant Medical Industry Standards.

My dad always told me that the key to success was to surround myself with brilliant people...and I think he was on to something. 😅

All in all, I've had an amazing career filled with incredible opportunities that I never would have even dreamed of or imagined, and it all stemmed from following this simple principle. 

I've done everything from medical device engineering, to growing my B2B Tech copywriting business from $0 to 6-figures in less than a year, to leading the growth engine for an up-and-coming SaaS startup fighting against the status quo of crappy push notifications. 🤺

...and who knows what's around the next turn.

Conversational Tech Copywriter

You're probably really proud of your tech - No one knows it better than you do.

...which is exactly why you shouldn't be writing your own copy.


Wait...What?!?


Yep. That's right.


See, when you're 'too close' to your tech, you start to develop your own language and assumptions.

Worse yet, you start to get blind to what your customers do and don't know.

It's not unique to you, it's just really hard to read the label of the jar you're in.


As an Engineer with an unhealthy obsession with consumer psychology, I can come alongside your technical team and help translate your features and differentiators into relevant and relatable messaging that speaks to your customers where they are.
