Why We Started Cornison Innovations
Most prodcut development firms will take your money, hand you a CAD file, and call it done. We started Cornison Innovations because we kept getting called in to fix the mess they left behind: half-finished prototypes, design that couldn’t be manufactured, and founders who’d spent their budget with nothing to show for it. We believe great ideas deserve to actually make it to market. That’s why everything we do is built around finishing what we start.

Cassandra Mathison
Co-Owner & Director of Product Strategy
Cassandra is a licensed Professional Engineer (PE) with an MBA, PMP certification, and 9+ years of hands-on mechanical engineering experience across consumer products, aerospace, and defense. She’s led projects from napkin sketch to full-scale production, and she brings the same rigor to a startup’s first prototype as she does to a complex, regulated product program.
Her background spans 3D modeling, DFM, rapid prototyping and project management. This means she doesn’t just design your prodcut, she thinks about how it gets built, what it costs, and how to get it to market efficiently. If your product is stuck, she’s the person who gets it unstuck.

William Cornell
Co-Owner & Director of Engineering
With over a decade of experience in aerospace and robotics, William brings deep technical expertise in design, manufacturing, and precision engineering. A graduate of CSU Northridge with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering, he specializes in 3D modeling, high-precision component design, and rapid prototyping. William is driven by the challenge of solving complex engineering problems and turning ideas into tangible, functional products. His hands-on approach and attention to detail have earned him a reputation as a go-to problem solver in the field.
What Makes Us Different
We’re not a design agency that outsources the hard parts. We’re engineers who build things, and we stay with you from the first sketch to the finished product.
