In the years that followed, Jonathan has gained experience in every area of the business and earned a BS in Mechanical Engineering.  As the father of two young girls, a new son, and the owner of a family-oriented business, Jonathan is familiar with the unique struggles faced by many family-owned manufacturers in the US, and works each day to bring a practical, problem-solving approach to the world of modern cutting rooms - from digitizing and pattern layout software to cut parts coming off the table.      https:\/\/thomsinger.com\/podcast\/autometrix ","author_name":"Making Waves at C-Level","author_url":"http:\/\/www.thomsinger.com\/podcast","html":"
