Über mich

The pace of current technological progress excites me more than anything else. I feel lucky to be in the middle of business, manufacturing industry and materials technology. I always look forward to meeting like-minded people. My technical interests are additive manufacturing and nanotool making as well as related materials and digital technologies. I have been contributing to products, patents and publications for over 10 years as a research scientist, engineer, consultant and technical sales manager. Currently I work as Application Engineer at SLM Solutions and help customers utilize metal 3D printing. Previously I worked at W. R. Grace's Technical Sales group and help customers find the best materials solutions and develop new applications with nanomaterials. I am a Technische Universität Berlin alumni with a PhD and postdoc in applied physical chemistry. Check out my informal essays: www.cagriuzum.com/blog.
