About Sam

Hello, and welcome to my page!

My name is Sam. I'm a mechanical engineer with over six years of experience in aerospace and electric vehicle design, focused on software methodologies, aerodynamics, thermodynamics, stress analysis, and physical testing.

I launched my career at Rivian, developing aerodynamics and off-road capabilities on the world’s first EV pickup truck. I was also a founding engineer at Super73, where I developed the world’s fastest charging EV motorcycle. I've participated in a $12 billion IPO, brought six vehicles to market, and specialize in cradle-to-grave design. I'm an experienced interviewer across diverse technical and product teams.

Being a creative neurodivergent, I struggled through the technical nature of engineering school, ultimately finding my niche in technical storytelling. I've guided several early career engineers through their journey of professional self-definition. My artistic bent gives me a unique perspective within engineering environments and helps me achieve intense buy-in for my technical ideas, regarless of how unconventional. I care immensely about cohesive, integrated products, and that shows in how I present myself and my work.

I'm excited to work with similarly creative people stuck in technical spaces who feel they can achieve more in their careers. I can help you translate your work into corporate engineering jargon, achieve enthusiastic support for your initiatives, and avoid feeling unrecognized in your professional work.

About the lesson

Are you hitting roadblocks in your professional career, with your ideas being sidelined due to corporate direction?

I specialize in:
- Defining your value proposition
- Navigating early-stage startups
- Negotiating compensation
- Integrating technical engineering into engaging product stories
- Mentoring in presenting ideas confidently in technical settings
- Accelerating career growth

I also offer:
- Consultations on job offers, stock plans, and resumes
- Conducting mock interviews
- Personalized one-on-one online tutoring across various engineering disciplines
- Reviewing your technical work or presentations
- Helping you craft narratives that resonate

Whether you're a freshman aiming for a strong start or a senior manager needing a sounding board for your next initiative, I tailor my sessions to your style and pace. I provide guidance on foundational engineering principles and advanced strategic insights, ensuring that the advice perfectly suits your career stage. With flexible scheduling to fit your busy life and availability for short-notice consultations, I'm here to support your success; there is no question too small.

Our one-on-one sessions will be conducted online. Each session is highly customizable to meet your career goals. Please communicate what your outcome goals are before attending.

When you're ready to make your mark, reach out, let me know what you need, and I’ll be straightforward about how I can help.
