My Experience
As a Research and Development Engineer, I have the opportunity to get involved with many new and exciting projects. I am responsible for developing standard products and for creating new system solutions to meet customer needs. Our exciting product is the ZiPLine, a belted, zero-pressure accumulation conveyor. The design is well-suited to convey everything from small packages or envelopes up to bulkier items that weigh up to 75 lbs. Another exciting project in development is a new system design for mixed case palletizing. When this project is successful, it will be a revolutionary approach to building mixed case pallets on demand.
Working at Bastian
I really enjoy working with the wide variety of people in each of the business units. There is a culture of innovation that embraces new ideas to solve difficult problems.
Why do customers come back to me?
Customers continue to come back to us for solutions because we have the engineering tools to meet any material handling challenge.
A little bit about myself
I grew up in Fredericksburg, Virginia and most of my family still lives in Virginia. I enjoy hanging out with friends, usually playing cards or going to see live music.
