Hello, I am a mechanical engineer working in the design and development industry for chemical products and processes. I've previously worked in defense contracting, automotive parts supplier, foundry & castings, plastic thermoforming, and general shop and fabrication with CNC Mill/Lathework. I have compentency in several CAD software programs but primarily use Fusion 360. I'm able to create components, assemblies, kinetic models, sheet metal flat patterns, DXF line work (laser, water, plasma), and drawings (GD&T). Take a look at some of the models I've made, and work I've done. I'm always looking to try something new and challenging! -Jake

I am an efficient and innovative design engineer with ~4 years experience in product design and manufacturing. I am proficient in solid 3D modeling as well as complex 3D surfacing. I have experience with machined part design, injection-molded part design, flat patterning (sewn goods), stamped part design, thermoforming, and metal fabrication. The bulk of my work experience has taken place in a small business setting that has not only provided the opportunity to fully hash out designs from the sketchpad to prototypes to full production, but has also given me the creative freedom to try new or innovative production methods not afforded to a standard engineer. My strengths lie in my versatility, my ability to quickly find creative, cost-effective solutions to product design problems and my strong CAD background.

I am a design engineer with experience in designing products and tooling for both low- and high-volume manufacturing. Whether you need to reverse-engineer a broken component, model your on-shored product, model and render a new product or concept, produce RFQ-ready technical drawings with full GD&T, or develop quality, easy-to-use tooling/jigs/fixtures for your manufacturing line, I can do it! I am a Certified SolidWorks Professional and an expert in Fusion360 - licenses for both of which I own. In particular, I excel at building parametric, equation-driven models and design tables at the part, sub-assembly, and top-level assembly levels. I am also experienced at parametrically linking Solidworks drawings for automatic information updates. My manufacturing experience includes injection molding, thermoforming, extrusion, acoustic felt, sheet metal, steel/concrete pipe, additive manufacturing, 3-axis CNC, and product assembly. I've reverse-engineered, designed, and revised hundreds of custom products and tools. I have worked the production floor myself, so I know what to look for and ask about when designing for production. I can build small- to mid-size mechanical prototypes, such as a small prototype refrigerator that I designed and built in the second half of 2022. I have the ability to produce parts via FFF printing. I can also assist you in locating quality vendors for tooling and production.
