About Sierra Wolf
Summary I have experience in all parts of the consumer product design cycle from blue sky invention, early prototyping and feasibility, iterative design and testing, to factory product ramp support. I took ownership of determining and mitigating risks to new designs by using VSA, FEA, and other analysis and life, dynamic/drop, climatic, dust, acoustic and other testing. My manufacturing experience allows me to design for manufacturability, assembly, and cost early. I can help deliver innovative and robust designs to solve challenges in new ways.
