Experience leading design strategy and creative direction across multiple simultaneous hardware programs at an organizational level

Proficiency in 3D CAD surfacing tools (such as Alias, Rhino, SolidWorks, Creo) and experience in collaborating with engineering development teams to solve complex wearable or handheld device geometries

Experience communicating design vision and rationale to leadership through proto@types, renderings, and verbal/written presentations
