I’m a mechanical designer and project engineer with over 10 years of experience delivering innovative, manufacturing solutions across 100+ projects totaling $10M+ in scope. My career has produced designs for industries including manufacturing, water treatment, agriculture, energy, logistics, food processing, and retail, where I’ve combined strong 3D design skills with hands-on project execution and leadership. I specialize in product development, turnkey manufacturing management, and mechanical system design, with a deep understanding of how to move ideas from concept to production. My background includes SolidWorks, Inventor, FEA (SimSolid), and a range of ERP/MRP and WMS tools that keep complex projects efficient and traceable. Over the years, I’ve worked across industries including industrial automation, material handling, custom machinery, energy systems, logistics, and manufacturing services. My work has ranged from detailed mechanical drafting and 3D modeling to managing engineering teams, vendors, and quality documentation. I’ve designed and optimized equipment, implemented process automation through Excel VBA and other tools, and mentored designers on best practices in CAD modeling and drawing standards. In addition to design work, I’ve contributed heavily to project estimation, procurement, and production coordination, ensuring that cost, schedule, and technical requirements stay aligned. I’ve also implemented improvements in inventory management, vendor relations, and cost control—reducing waste and improving bottom-line efficiency for my employers and clients. Whether leading a project from initial concept through prototype testing or providing detailed drawing packages for production, I focus on solving problems and delivering dependable mechanical and process solutions. I take pride in creating designs that are practical, efficient, and easy to manufacture. I’m currently seeking remote or contract-based mechanical design opportunities, where I can apply my background in 3D modeling, FEA, and manufacturing processes to help companies execute their projects effectively. I’m especially drawn to roles that value initiative, attention to detail, and a balance between technical accuracy and creative problem-solving.

I am a licensed Professional Mechanical Engineer and the founder of Solvify LLC, an independent mechanical engineering consulting firm based in Covington, Washington. I hold a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Washington, where I graduated with a 3.89 GPA, and an A.S. in Pre-Engineering from Green River College with a 3.90 GPA. Since founding Solvify in 2025, I have specialized in helping industrial clients in the oil & gas, nuclear, combustion, hydro, and manufacturing sectors tackle complex challenges through design calculations, failure analysis, reliability engineering, and risk-informed design. I bring a strong foundation in thermal-hydraulic and fluid system analysis, combined with practical experience in codes and standards such as ASME B&PV, B31.1, and B31.3. Before starting my own firm, I gained valuable experience across research, operations, product development, and large-scale engineering projects. At TerraPower, I worked as a Fluid Systems Design Engineer on a first-of-a-kind sodium fast reactor, where I developed thermal-hydraulic models, supported nuclear licensing efforts, wrote technical reports, and mentored other engineers. Earlier, as a Gas Products Engineer and Product Technical Lead at Algas-SDI, I led design projects for propane vaporizers, conducted FMEAs, developed capacity calculation tools still used by the sales team, and drove product improvements that enhanced reliability while meeting UL and ATEX requirements. My background also includes hands-on power plant operations at the University of Washington’s steam plant and published research in knot theory. This combination of deep technical analysis, manufacturing and operations experience, and leadership allows me to deliver practical, high-impact solutions that improve safety, reliability, and performance for my clients. I am deeply passionate about helping my clients succeed by delivering engineering solutions that are not only technically sound but also practical, reliable, and aligned with their real-world operational goals. My goal is always to leave clients with stronger systems, greater clarity, and the tools they need to perform effectively long after the project ends.
