Before DynoSense, I managed Savitron, Inc., which provided engineering and consulting services. I surpassed our yearly growth projections by >30% for 2 consecutive years by developing many marketing and sales channels, including online retail, contract manufacturing, and OEMs making networking products, medical instruments, and semiconductor equipment.
