Planned and conducted onsite DVE demos that lead to successful contracts with both the U.S. Navy Seabees ($14M) and the Denmark Military ($400K). These are new customers for DRS and the systems are deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan. Program Managed DVE and provided major engineering contributions to IBAS, and FEP prior to production release. Lead Engineer on the most significant RSTA data collects (video and photo) over the last 8 years, including smoke and pyrotechnic video work for the FCS Proposal; SBINet Tucson Imagery of illegal’s walking at 7km used in the proposal; DENVG IR vs. I2 video and training photo’s presented in the proposal; and National Training Center 360 degree situational awareness imagery was used by DRS Marketing and presented at AUSA.

Travelled to major U.S. Bases and Europe to install and demonstrate DRS products including HTI, FEP, TWS, and DVE. Travelled to Finland, France, Italy, Denmark, and the U.K. This has resulted in follow-on DVE contracts, DRS on the Stryker Platform and MRAP, and DVE evaluation on Army trucks in the U.S. and Iraq. Unique cross- platform skills in engineering and business development to provide key field support that has lead to contract dollars. Directed and managed complete projects from the office to the field to processing the data collected, including Afghan Village video, Baker smoke and dust IR pictures, Denmark Leopard II install, and numerous others.
