About

As the CEO and Principal Technical Architect at AWToolbox.com, I strive to bring all of the benefits of the instructor-led training world to the remote landscape. At AWToolbox.com, our goal is to provide more content, faster, to the customer using, administering, installing, customizing, upgrading......


After working in a small manufacturing plant in Rensselaer, IN mainly performing AutoCAD drawing updates per Engineering requests (manual PLM process), I hoped around working small contract positions for web developers, phone game developers, Flash and Flex application development, and eventually ended up as a Technical Coordinator for a digital display system that would grow from 1 computer with a PowerPoint presentation on it, to a digital enterprise with a central server hosting the administrative console to be able to push formats, themes, content, news, advertisements, and more to any connected system with the software. In a matter of a few years I had helped build a system of 100+ digital display systems across the Purdue University campus. During this time, I managed to receive a Bachelors in Science, specialty in Computer Graphics Technology. Prior to graduation I had received an offer to come on to the Genesis program at Siemens DISW. Fast forward 12 years and I've aided in the training, development, and mentoring of professionals across industries. During my time at Siemens, I began as a Technical Trainer, regurgitating training and trying not to mess up too badly. As the years progressed, I learned how to teach Using, Administration, Business Modeler IDE, Teamcenter Environment Manager (TEM) Installations, Site consolidations, Data Migration and so many other topics that are at the core for running Teamcenter effectively and aiding in the creation in some really cool technology.


Before I left Siemens, I had helped in the curation of most of the core training courses and instructor led training courses at Siemens. As covid moved us all remote, I was ushered into a new, more modern way of training. Using Teams, Zoom or any other sharing application to present the same material, in the same way.


After I left Siemens, I started AWToolbox as a way to try and bring the deeper demonstrations to everyone.
