I am involved in development work that aims to change vehicles through advanced electronics. I have extensive experience ranging from advanced development through to implementation. I believe that contributing to delivery of a greater mobility user experience (UX) will ensure that drivers will continue to love their vehicles despite a future commoditization of cars.
