Seven years ago I started out learning to draft by hand, spending hours ensuring my paper was aligned with my T-square, drawing construction lines, and lettering to my hearts content. While continuing with that practice I moved on to 2d drafting in AutoCAD, and after becoming proficient moved into both architectural drafting and mechanical modeling. After beginning my early college years I was able to earn a certification in SolidWorks and began fulfilling clients needs in 3d modeling. I have accrued experience in 2d CNC work, injection molding, large scale manufacturing, small scale assembly, and am expanding into CAM. Through M. L. McKinney LLC I am able to offer quality modeling and drafting services using industry standard software with 1 on 1 consultation. Together we can tweak your design until it is exactly what you want!

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.

Hi, I’m Alex! I have 3+ years of professional experience as a designer and project manager for both Architecture firms and a Misc Metals subcontractor. I’ve been using Rhino, Illustrator, AutoCAD, and Grasshopper for about 7 years. Although I’m best versed in Rhino, I consider myself a strong all-around draftsman and modeler, though most of my experience is relevant mainly to architectural elements. I quickly moved from a position as an intern architect to a misc metals project manager overseeing most aspects of large, multi-floor and multi-million dollar projects for companies such as Microsoft, Google, and Amazon. I’m just now beginning to dabble in freelance work, so my available time is mostly on weekends, but if demand for my services grows, that is certainly subject to change.

My responsibilities are but is not limited to draft and design residential Homes, Revise and follow building codes, fire regulations, zoning laws and city ordinances when creating plans.  For public buildings, being aware of disabled access laws. Since these laws change regularly, stay up-to-date on policy, zoning and regulation changes.  Be in sync with latest energy-efficient products, building styles and the area to ensure their design matches current building structures.  To provide pre-design figures such as an environmental impact or feasibility study, cost analysis and land use study. Final construction plans are created by me and used by builders as a step-by-step guide on how the look and details of the building will play out, including plumbing, communication and heating, electrical, ventilation and structural systems.
