The DoD named castings a top-four defense priority. The foundry is the front line of reindustrialization.

Founded Fabri at MIT to rebuild America’s industrial base through advanced manufacturing. Previously at Relativity Space; raised in LA’s aerospace community.

PhD from KU Leuven, postdoc at Stanford. Co-developed support-free metal 3D printing at Velo3D. At Fabri, leading the technical effort to modernize investment casting with software and automation.

MIT-trained mechanical engineer who co-founded Atlantis Components (acquired by AstraZeneca) and scaled manufacturing operations as VP at Inkbit. Career built on standing up factories from scratch.
American aviation, national security, and the power grid all run on cast parts, and the domestic foundry supply chain is falling apart. America needs a workforce that can support the physical economy again.
We poured our first castings less than five months after starting Fabri. Customers get real parts they can hold, and you’ll see what you built.
Foundry 01 is software-defined and built to be copied. The plan is one new foundry a year until American casting capacity is back where it should be.
