His background in mechanical engineering (BS/MS) and early work in embedded firmware and industrial gateways gives him rare cross-domain fluency between hardware-constrained firmware and higher-level application architecture. Bill has repeatedly stepped into roles that require both team leadership and deep technical ownership, including running his own consulting practice for 16 years.

Based in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, he brings institutional knowledge of medical device ecosystems and a preference for solving real-world clinical problems through robust engineering.
