• Initiated and facilitated product development of custom fire-rated glazed partition systems with Nomura, Sanwa Shutter, and Kokuyo, achieving compliance with Japan fire codes while reducing Capex.
• Introduced Pantry Operational Flow as a schematic design review step, a communication tool for designers to get buy-in from operations and executives and collect feedback from architects of record and equipment vendors.

WeWork

New York, NY

• Responsible for crafting the trajectory of design-to-fabrication technologies relating to modular prefab products, and the creation and implementation of software for WeWork design teams globally.
• Collaborated on a small team to create and ship software in C# and IronPython for design, fabrication, and laser layout teams, connecting schematic design directly to fabrication output.
• Built IronPython tooling in Dynamo to extract building geometry from Revit, run panel sizing, and generate fabrication-ready outputs, directly feeding factory machinery and on-site laser layout.
• Architected a supply chain MVP using the Unleashed platform and Python API to centralize BOM quantification across regions for glazed partitions, prefab phone booths, and prefab pantries.
• Derived a global glazed partition standard across US, EMEA, and APAC that enabled regional bulk purchasing and reduced CAPEX for the Development team.
