About Jayden Garfield

I am creative and talented engineer with a passion for the design process and solving problems. I enjoy helping a simple idea be developed from a model into a testable prototype and onward to a commercial product. I view the medical device industry as a way to share my skill set to better the lives of those who need medical treatment or a higher quality of life.I am a dedicated individual and have been taught the value of a great work ethic. I have received excellent mentorship from many talented individuals and hope to share what I have learned with others. I love learning and welcome opportunities to solve a new problem or acquire a new skill.
