About Kent Kallsen
With over 30 years of engineering experience, my expertise lies in product development, problem-solving, and team building. While probably best described as \"retired\", I am currently channeling my passion for hands-on work through my youtube channel DIY Fab Shop, where my goal is to encourage and empower others in their DIY endeavors. With any luck, one of my projects will lead to entrepreneurial product opportunity.
Experience
Principal and Co-founder
Aug 2020 — Present · Madison, WI, US
We launched MaskTite, LLC in the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic. After months of dealing with fogging glasses and slipping masks, we knew there had to be a better way. Our solution: MaskTite strips.MaskTite strips are made of skin-safe, medical-grade, double-sided adhesive tape. They’re hypoallergenic and latex-free, made of US materials and manufactured in Wisconsin. MaskTite strips can be used with paper and cloth masks and improve mask fit in a variety of environments including schools, healthcare facilities, retail and restaurant settings, manufacturing, offices and more. Our strips are sized to help adults and kids and work with paper and cloth masks.When you need to wear a mask, MaskTite makes every mask better.
