Core Disciplines

Core Service Areas

TechFX delivers deep expertise across four disciplines — each one built from decades of real-world research and engineering leadership.

Driving simulation

Driving Simulation

I provide full-spectrum driving simulator consulting — from hardware selection and software integration to scenario design and validation, drawing on my experience managing Ford's VIRTTEX world-class simulator lab.

Human Factors

I apply a human-centered lens to driver behavior research and ADAS feature development, using the data-driven methodology I developed over decades of frontline research at Ford and beyond.

Psychoacoustics

I offer acoustic analysis, sound quality evaluation, and perceptual audio research — bridging the science of hearing with real-world engineering requirements.

Signal Processing

I handle data processing, analysis, and tool development for driving simulation research applications — from raw signal acquisition through to meaningful, actionable results.

28 Years Shaping the Industry

I founded TechFX, LLC in January 2024 — bringing together a career built at the intersection of technology and human experience.

After 27 years at Ford Motor Company — including developing and managing the world-class VIRTTEX driving simulator lab — and a year as Executive Manager at AVSimulation, a global leader in driving simulation solutions, I bring rare depth to every engagement.

My mission is to help clients leverage the right simulation tools and methods to address their engineering and human factors challenges. I'm passionate about driving innovation, quality, and client satisfaction in the simulation industry.
