I'm a certified CAD designer who enjoys mostly working with the 3D mechanical discipline, and I enjoy designing new things. For a short time while working on my CAD certification, my instructor picked me as one of four potential candidates to intern at a private engineering firm called Power Engineers in the Kansas City area. I was one of the 4 which they selected out of the rest of the class. The process was very enlightening as to what to expect working for a company doing CAD work. Once the internship came to a close, they pretty much offered me a job to work there permanently, although sadly I had to decline due to the long distance I would have to travel each day. I also wanted the freedom to be able to work on a wider variety of parts and products while doing CAD work, and not be stuck doing one thing only, like electrical schematics. While I haven't had a whole lot of on the job experience doing CAD work, I still have a passion for the design aspect and have kept up on practicing designs at home with my own projects. My software of choice (and what I am most familiar with) is Fusion 360. I am familiar, and have worked with other CAD software in the past such as Autocad, Microstation, and Autodesk Inventor. I also have experience working with consumer grade 3D printers.

I hold a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and I work full-time as a manufacturing engineer. I use CAD (SolidWorks specifically) daily and am very proficient. I am able to assist with everything from product concept to producing a fully working prototype. My experience includes designing for plasma cutting, laser cutting, 3D printing, sheet metal bending, assessing for manufacturability, machineability, tolerance stack-up and a whole lot more. Electromechanical and off-the-shelf component integration are my specialty. Keeping costs down is something I can help you with greatly. If it can be done, I can get it done.
