Here is the mini bio from Jeffrey:
When the business was short-handed, I have stepped in and helped with design work. My success is possible because of the culmination of my experiences (90% perspiration and 10% inspiration).
Most recently, I collaborated with Hector Camps of PHI Cubed in co-operation with Miami Dade College on a project to demonstration the capability of 3DExperience Platform in architectural design. The object was to develop an automated process utilizing the 3DExpereince and the Platform.
Dassault Systemes, I moved to Perth Australia to join Dassault Systemes. The mission was to exploit 3DExperience Platform in the mining industry. It was a great opportunity to learn a new industry, fulfill a dream to work for Dassault Systemes and experience a new culture. I provided the team with the skills necessary to develop and deploy Know How Apps on the platform. I also participated directly in the development of the solutions.
At Yanfeng/Johnson Controls, I had a 28-year career in the automotive industry. I held several positions over the years: Product Designer, CNC Programmer, Tooling Designer, CAD Support Specialist, ENOVIA VPM architect, and Knowledgeware developer/team leader. The most fulfilling role was that of Knowledgeware team leader. I was responsible for a global development team (India, Slovakia, China, and US). I architecture a methodology that enabled the team to co-develop and deploy solutions on demand to 8 tech campuses.
In Addition to industry experience, I also volunteered with COE.org (10yrs) soliciting presentations as well as providing presentations and training modals at the annual conference. Plus, I was the acting president of WMCAE.org (20yrs). I organized 5 user group meetings per year for area Dassault Systemes and Siemens user community. Looking back, I feel humbled to have had great opportunities and truly fortunate to have developed a network of peers/friends. Thanks to all!
