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. Certifications: Certified Solidworks Professional in Mechanical Design (CSWP-MD) C-8SKX4GBT3R Certified Solidworks Professional Advanced - Sheet Metal (CSWPA-SM) C-F67ZHEX3WR Certified Solidworks Professional Advanced - Drawing Tools (CSWPA-DT) C-UA37YPGQKM Solidworks PDM Professional, by GoEngineer.

I have been working in this field (design for manufacturability) for over 4 years. I have a technical knowledge in mechanical design gained from higher education as well as experience. Currently I'm using Fusion 360 to create mechanical models, FEA, engineering drawing as well as generating g-code for CNC manufacturing. I also have knowledge in proper material selection for the parts based on the function, environment, cost, adaptability as well as service life of the part. My experience is mostly focused on the design of mechanical parts, mechanical analysis (FEA, material selection) and manufacturing (Machining, additive manufacturing). I have a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering technology from Montana State University. I have been a member of a design competition offered by TechSoft3D.com. My design was concept electric jet engine for commercial airliner

I am a CAD design professional with 2 years experience in Solidworks and 3 years in Fusion 360. My expertise is primarily in mechanical design. I have spent 7 years in aircraft maintenance working on turboprop engines and propellers which has given me a breadth of hands-on experience in constructional theory and part design. Over the past 7 years, I worked closely with engineers while analyzing technical drawings to improve parts and identify a root cause of failure. Furthermore, I have spent the last 3 years honing my skills in 3D printing on professional SLA printers. This knowledge has given me great insight into designing for additive manufacturing.

A well thought out CAD model can save many unnecessary headaches and costly design oversights downstream. No matter how big or small of a part or mechanical assembly, a CAD model will be the keystone in a robust final product. However, this is always easier said than done, turning an idea into a 3D model in a computer isn’t always a walk in the park, this is where I come in. My experience is in CAD and in-depth knowledge of mechanical designs which accumulates to turning your idea into a reality, on your screen. If the resources allow, the idea doesn’t need to stop there. With hands-on experience in machining (CNC), additive manufacturing (3D printing), and composites, I can assist in making your idea a reality. In addition to robust CAD models and assemblies, I can also offer: - Finite Element Analysis and comprehensive reports - Detailed part drawings - Technical writing - Renderings I have engineering experience in automotive, mobility, and outdoor recreation equipment design, specializing in suspension, battery enclosures, and belt drive systems. I look forward to working with you on the next revolutionary idea, no matter how big or small.
