About me

It is important for a programmer to understand all aspects of machining and manufacturing. I have been in the industry since 2005 and have worked my way up the ladder. From deburr, to mills, to programming, to foreman and everything in between (sorry no lathes). Most of my career I have balanced multiple positions at the same time always looking for a challenge. In 2020 I decided to branch out and purchase my own Hypermill software to provide programming on the side of my full time job. Hypermill has proven to be quite a powerhouse for my GROB 5-axis programming, including GROB’s with turning capabilities. It has also been amazing for all other 3-4-5 axis machines.
