Hi I’m Rick Neff. I am originally from Philadelphia and have a Mechanical Engineering Degree from
Lehigh University. I started my career crisscrossing the country and lived in San Francisco, L.A., Buffalo,
Rochester and Boston before settling in Cincinnati in 1992. Working for three Fortune 500 companies
and a family owned machine tool company brought lessons about helping customers solve their
problems with technology solutions in capital equipment or aerospace components. In 2019 I started a
consulting business to capitalize on my expertise in advanced manufacturing and marketing. I have a
great group of customers like Thermwood Corporation, OpenAdditive, ASME and Firehawk Aerospace.
Speaking at conferences is one of the best ways to share knowledge with a larger audience.
