Experience
Strategic Business Advisor and Product Development
Dec 2019 — Present · State College, PA, US
Magnitude Instruments has redefined state-of-the-art by creating benchtop transient absorption (TA) spectrometers that push the limits of nano-to-millisecond spectroscopy with fast data collection and sensitivity that are inaccessible with traditional TA technology. Designed by scientists for scientists, our patent-pending noise suppression technology enables rapid measurements of small signals and allows scanning with unprecedented low intensity photoexcitation for high quality, publishable data.Research groups can leverage 100-fold higher sensitivity to forge new frontiers in photochemistry and catalysis research. I provide strategic business consulting and lead the product development team. We took our proven technology from sketches to a working trade show unit in 3 months, and delivered production units 4 months after that. We now have three key product lines with multiple accessories available to our customers to advance their scientific research.
