Team

Gary Baron

Founder, CEO
I believe the world is an abundant ocean of opportunity which is why I am an avid entrepreneur. I recognize possibilities and then leverage my resources to bring a vision to life. As a kid I liked taking things apart and putting them back together again, often adding inventive touches along the way. My early work in engineering, telecommunications, and consulting eventually parlayed into entrepreneurship that after 10 startups has culminated in more successes than failures. With a rich, eclectic background that includes engineering, biology, psychology, computer science, and marketing, I use design thinking that leverages continuously evolving platform technologies to connect people in unique ways. Having recognized the amazing potential in Plasma Directed Electron Beam™ technology, I am creating a team of talented, passionate individuals to bring exciting new products to the market that can make a difference.

Adrianne Blocklin

Project Manager
I am a certified Project Management Professional (PMP)® with more than a decade of technical and project management experience, leading multifunctional, global teams. With beginnings as a biochemist, I have conducted research in biochemistry, medicinal chemistry, organic chemistry, aerosol science, microbiology and surface chemistry. I have served as a subject matter expert in biological and chemical sensor development and testing, and more recently specialized in the development of Ion Mobility Spectrometry (IMS)-based narcotics and explosives trace detection technology. I also have experience leading policy, process and protocol development in safety, lab practice, manufacturing, quality control and regulatory compliance.

 Pete Tandler, Ph.D.

Scientific Advisor

I am an Associate Professor of Chemistry and the Chief Scientist of the Center for Science Innovation at Walsh University. With over 30 years of academic and industrial research experience, my research interests are in materials, energy, and environmental chemistry. I have over 50 publications and presentations in diverse fields, including fuel cells, nanomaterials, dental materials, environmental science, and the conservation of cultural artifacts.

Before my academic appointments, I developed computational methods for screening active pharmaceutical candidates for drug metabolism, and integrated instruments with liquid handlers to improve laboratory throughput. I earned my Ph.D. by developing an expert system for characterizing plastic recycling products via their mass spectra.

As the Director of the STAR Chemistry Program from 2014 to 2021, I designed integrated laboratories where students could gain experience applying chemistry to sustainability issues. These projects included synthesizing catalysts for fuel cells, characterizing products from the degradation of biodegradable polymers, exploring emulsion polymerization for sustainable paint chemistry, and analyzing tire wear products.
