President
Bob started his career in mechanical engineering and quickly developed a passion for design and developing products. He started his career at Fiskars in Wausau, WI out of college, and two years later he was asked to join the Fiskars R&D team in Madison. After getting to Madison, he continued to take on more management roles within the organization. After leaving Fiskars, he joined a small product development consulting firm where he wore several hats, including project management, leading prototyping services, product design, and working with the industrial designers to create user-centered designs. After joining bb7 in 2009 as a member of the mechanical engineering team, Bob was quickly promoted to Director of Mechanical Engineering and later to VP, Operations, General Manager, and then President.
Bob’s vision for bb7 is to ensure that people come first – our culture is vital to a successful organization and sound product development. We focus on functional and elegant designs that meet our clients’ requirements and follow their technology roadmaps, all while ensuring that our employees have a safe place to explore their designs. Bob helps bb7 to navigate the ever-changing world of consulting and product development and continue to bring value to our clients.
Bob is a natural people person who loves to connect with employees, clients, and his peers within the industry, and has a great, self-deprecating sense of humor. We love having a little fun at his expense!
