CTO (Feb 2014-Sept 2015) Product Management and Assembly (May 2013-Jan 2014) Product Development Branding Marketing Sales + Distribution Product Management Product Development Assembly Social Media Campaign Prototyping Sourcing and Manufacturer Relations Working with Distributers Shipping and Distribution I started working in MiniDrive assembly and soon took over Product Management and Product Assembly. In February of 2014 I stepped in as CTO of TheMiniDrive and helped develop and coordinate the release of the 128GB Integrated MiniDrive (the 1st Flush 128GB SDXC card released to Market). I continued to add to the companies product line developing and releasing models for the MacBook - Retina 13 & new Retina 15 (Late 2013+), and universal Nano MiniDrive adapter. The Nano was and remains the smallest MicroSD to SDXC adapter on the market. During this time theMiniDrive began supporting a number of Ultrabooks and PC's including a line for Lenovo's Yoga 2 Pro and ASUS ZenBook. While small TheMiniDrive was instrumental in repurposing the MacBook's SDXC port into a semi permanent storage solution. Serving as the first in a long line of similar products released by larger more powerful companies, TheMiniDrive was however the first company to release a flush, form fitting adapter and 128GB integrated line of drives for Apple's MacBook Line. This was followed by a wave of products including Nifty MiniDrive, PNY StorEdge, MiniDrive by SanDisk, JetDrive Lite by Transcend, HyperDrive, TarDisk, and others.

This was a brief job to help out a great startup, I handled their mailing when they first launched, I was mailing for a tech startup already so it made sense to help them out early on. I love their products and was glad to help.
