About Me
Christopher Blessing
Owner | Innovation Leader | Girl Dad

I'm a passionate and innovative engineering professional with a robust background in fostering innovation, managing complex projects, and enhancing operational efficiency. Currently, I serve as an Engineering Manager at Wurtec in Toledo, OH, where I lead a diverse team of specialists, including electrical engineers, embedded software engineers, and advanced product development engineers. My role involves overseeing program management activities, driving product development, and implementing strategic initiatives that have resulted in significant cost savings and operational improvements, particularly through additive manufacturing, which accounts for a large portion of our Value Analysis/Value Engineering (VAVE) efforts.

In addition to my role at Wurtec, I am the proud owner of InnovAlchemy, a consulting company that is my true passion project. InnovAlchemy allows me to channel my enthusiasm for innovation and strategic planning into helping other organizations achieve their goals. Through this venture, I provide expert guidance on leveraging new technologies, optimizing processes, and fostering a culture of creativity and innovation.

My career is marked by a commitment to driving growth and exceeding performance metrics. I have a proven track record in VAVE, having achieved substantial savings for my organization, with additive manufacturing playing a key role in these achievements. I am also dedicated to mentoring and developing my team, ensuring that we continuously explore new and emerging technologies to stay ahead in the industry.

Beyond my professional endeavors, my favorite job title is “Girl Dad.” I cherish the time spent with my daughters and strive to be a positive role model for them.

With a Bachelor of Science in Technology Electro-Mechanical Systems Technology from Bowling Green State University and advanced training in Corporate Innovation Strategies from MIT Sloan, I bring a blend of technical expertise and strategic insight to every project I undertake. My goal is to continue pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in engineering and innovation, both through my work at Wurtec and my consulting endeavors with InnovAlchemy.
