Purpose of this website:
By this time in my career I know what I can do and but I still haven’t discovered what I can’t do ( given enough time ). The most striking thing about my career has been my ability to consistently innovate useful engineering or business tools in any business situation that I have found myself. I enjoy doing it. This website is an example of how I can proactively identify a need and develop a tool to meet that need. It is designed with the knowledge that people about to make a large investment do their research. It is already having an impact by providing data that was, until I persuaded the organization, not recently available. It is small now but it will grow. The information provided will help the parents and student interested in Biomedical Engineering and BMET make informed decisions about their investments. It also provides you, the industry professional, with a unique forum to state your needs ( See the MDIF series ). Not to the academic community but to the people who decide whether they want to enroll or stay in their programs, potential and current students. In short the people who pay a significant fraction of the education bill. I hope you will decide to work with me by encouraging those engineers that are interested in creating a short statement about what they would have liked to know before they got their first engineering position or what they would like to see from entry level engineers. Current contributions can be seen at this link Biomedical Industry Feedback . If you want to contribute your feedback let me know by following this link Contact Form .
You can see my focus on the customer with the question I ask at the top of the website. I will be calculating a net promoter score from the results. Richard Reichheld, the creator of the NPS, has a great website that it explains it.
Author’s Experience and skills summary:
I am a product development professional with a history of proven success in higher education, medical technology and I.T. I have worked extensively with Abbott Laboratories, Rush Presbyterian St Luke’s, and DeVry University. My skills range from the laboratory ( animal, biochemistry and mechanical ) to managing national programs. As a result I have proven innovative skills creating multiple courses in bio-medical technology, engineering models, co-inventor of 9 medical device patents, forms based software products, co-editor to two books in process and an Internet marketing approach. I have a knack for making innovative change happen. In particular I am specifically oriented towards process improvement and development including software with programming experience and testing experience in Unix Scripting, C++ and Visual Basic. In addition I bring a culturally sensitive approach to my work environment and have a well developed sense of respect for ethnic diversity. This sensitivity is supported by language skills in Spanish and French that can be brought up to conversational level in short order.
