I believe that Smart Manufacturing technologies can improve our everyday lives by delivering new and innovative products to market safely, efficiently, and at lower cost than ever before. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of technologies from PLC and SCADA-based control systems to advanced data collection historians, IoT devices, MES, and analytics; in industries ranging from food and beverage to pharmaceuticals to renewable energy.
