    Director, Flex R&D

    Los Angeles

    Flex R&D Inc. is an engineering and innovation consulting company specialized in product development around the area of flexible electronics (i.e. bendable and stretchable). I’m passionate about all kinds of disruptive technologies and I worked in product development across many industries spanning energy (solar, batteries, transistors) to biotech (personalized medicine, implants/drug delivery). I’m excited about the merger of these industries which are on the cutting edge of developing products that make our lives easier. Some firms I worked and consulted for include Mitsubishi, PepsiCo, Wrigley, General Mills, and small biotech companies. I’m also passionate about education and I am a lecturer at Loyola Marymount University in the Chemistry and Honors Departments.

    I have a M.S. in Industrial Chemistry from University of Padova in Italy and a PhD in Nanotechnology and Materials Science from CUNY in New York.
