ABOUT / EXPERIENCE
I’m Mike Dattolo. I combine product-design education with hands-on fabrication and manufacturing experience. I’m most engaged when a problem moves between CAD, a machine, a physical prototype and the next iteration.
EXPERIENCE
Production equipment setup and operation for spooling, printing and cutting; work orders and material requirements; equipment installation, adjustment and troubleshooting; quality, documentation and safety.
Supported student and faculty prototype builds, prepared fabrication files, adjusted machine settings, resolved design or equipment issues, and trained users on equipment operation, safety and lab standards.
Sales-floor operations, coaching, customer problem-solving and reporting. This experience supports my communication and training background rather than defining my technical direction.
