  Pickatto LLC

  Jun 2015 - now

  CEO/President

  Pickatto, the name of my new invention, is an electronic guitar pick with Bluetooth that syncs to a smart device or computer to show statistics from a practice session. It is intended to revolutionize how guitarists practice and was invented with the concept of changing practice time into numbers so players can meet specific goals. I consider the product like a “Fitbit for guitar players.” The filing date with the rights to the invention was acquired in June, 2015.Pickatto.com
