At Dezarc we are creating an entirely new category of tools that give designers & engineers a hands-on feel of their design specifications early on in the design process. Having physical samples of specifications such as color, texture, and hardness available early in the design process allows for not only a reduction in time to market but also an improved end-product.

While working at Cision Vision Inc, I lead the engineering side of the business in the development of our fleet of next-gen medical imaging devices. These devices use breakthrough technology developed with leading MIT researchers to identify biological tissues that were previously invisible, these tissues are an essential part of the cancer staging process. This technology was invented by Prof. Angela Belcher and Dr. Jeremy Li at MIT. Prof. Belcher is the head of the Bioengineering Department at MIT. The technology has applications in anatomical pathology, open surgery and laparoscopic surgery.
