My Outlook: Every product design project begins with a jumble of vague puzzle pieces. The pieces… market analysis, competitive analysis, price points, innovation, differentiation, aesthetics, concinnity, function, ergonomics, materials, manufacturing processes, tooling, assembly, packaging, shipping, users, manufacturers, costs, and the client. A myriad of considerations assemble into a design that makes your product unique, pertinent, targeted within its market, and profitable… a tangible object of desire and promise... a crisp image that makes sense. Every product wants to be something… to be desired and to realize its potential. I strive to stimulate that desire and optimize that potential… to solve the puzzle. My clients' success ensures my own and realizing that desire and potential benefits us both. My Experience: I use my degree in industrial design as a product designer/developer covering a wide variety of products. I have 20+ years of 3D modeling and product development experience. I have the resources to do it all... from concept to point of purchase and everything in-between. My Feedback, received and given: “Steve did great work helping us detail our product for manufacturing. He took the time to really understand the project and its intricacies instead of diving head first and by the end of this job, had an intimate understanding of all the details. He is talented and was willing to research new methods to help meet our stringent product constraints. We went through several discussions and he was excellent at being responsive and keeping things on track. He produced high quality solidworks assemblies and files. Overall he went above and beyond what was expected of him. Highly recommended contractor, A+++” —robocular “Antoine is an outstanding client to work with. He's quite knowledgeable and organized with clearly established goals coupled with exceptional communication skills. This project had some challenging constraints outside typical manufacturing and product design and development norms, but we worked through these challenges while staying within the target budget for the product. This project was more than I had bargained for, but I relished the challenge and Antoine appreciated the effort I put into it, which made this job particularly satisfying. I hope to work with Robocular again in the future.” —Io-Design “Working with Steve was a pleasure, not only do I think he’s an all-around good guy, but his approach to our project was great. He was able to take our idea and bring all his experience in making it better. Our initial idea was transformed into a product that ended up being cheaper to produce and nicer, while being more practical. We were able to overcome the hurdle we encounter and find solution that made it work! Also, he often came back with a different idea of doing things that were very practical. I Highly recommend him. ” — yvesl “Yvesi came to me with the need for a design for a grain dispenser for feeding livestock. As is often the case, he showed me a design from another designer he had hired that didn't meet the product requirements. This design was too large and could not be sold at a profit due to inappropriate and impractical manufacturing processes. Through close collaboration, we came up with a design that is half the size, more aesthetically pleasing and user friendly, and is simple to assemble and install. Also, it will be sold at a projected price point that is 10% lower than the competition at a projected 90% profit margin while enjoying relatively low capital expenditures. It was a pleasure working with yvesi on this project and I'm looking forward to working with him again in the future.” —Io-Design “Io-Design was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. He provided designs that were exactly what we were looking for and he took into account the manufacturing. I would recommend him to anyone. ” — Westone “As mentioned in the job description, Blake works for a company that represents the ultimate, uncompromising audio experience – revolutionary sound; unrivaled comfort and fit; with superior, innovative design in the earphone market. While they are well known among audiophiles and professionals who rely on uncompromising audio, they are less so in the consumer market. This project was part of an effort to update their earphones look, feel, and user experience to the level of their best in class earphone technology... the challenge being that their existing monitors/earbuds were to remain unchanged. Through close collaboration, we came up with a design that practices concinnity with the existing monitors, introduces innovative solutions, targets the consumer market, and enhances brand recognition. Superior design was the point of this project and together we have achieved that goal. Blake is a pleasure to work with and I'm looking forward to the next project.” —Io-Design

- TURNKEY, ONE-STOP-SHOP for new building construction and renovation Electrical Drawings and Specifications design that you can trust to be done accurately and thoughtfully the first time - DESIGNED OVER 1,500 ELECTRICAL DRAWINGS AND SPECIFICATIONS PACKAGES from start-to-finish for projects located across 17 different states - OVER 15 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE in electrical system design for new building constructions, renovations and modifications, including 9 years total of remote/satellite work - WORKED FOR THREE PROFESSIONAL ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING FIRMS located in California, Florida, and Georgia under direct supervision by and in collaboration with experienced Professional Engineers We all know that searching on these freelance sites means you have to sort through so many profiles, and that just a few simple questions are almost always at top of mind: 1) Does this person behind the profile have the actual expertise and experience needed to meet the high standards I have for this project? 2) Does this person communicate clearly and effectively, and is he/she accessible, available, and responsive to me? 3) Will it truly be worth it to farm out projects to a freelancer, or will the investment of my time and money be better served by just hiring someone in-house or maybe doing it myself, instead? Let me show you that I can deliver on all three of the above questions for your project and prove to you that you've made the right decision by hiring me to work remotely on your new building construction or renovation design documents. I'll design the Electrical Drawings and Specifications for each project from inception to completion or based on our specific, mutually agreed upon scope of work... Only a Professional Engineer's review, then seal, signature and date is required upon completion of the project. I'll, of course, communicate closely with you to ensure the design package is produced precisely and delivered in a timely manner, so that the entire design process meets the Engineer's, Architect's, and Client's highest expectations and so that each project's deadlines are met. I'll confirm that the design is in compliance with all applicable state and local codes and Authorities Having Jurisdiction. I'll join design team conference meetings and coordinate with other trades, manufacturer representatives and project decision makers, so clear communication happens. I'll meet project milestone deliverables and send progress set submittals, for reliable and accurate project execution. You can free up your time and offload the vast majority of the electrical design project to me, knowing that each project will be custom, individually tailored, and given the expertise, thought, and attention to detail that it deserves. I take a lot of pride in my work, and my constant goal is for that to be evident in the Plans I produce. **I can use my own extensive library of industry-recognizable Electrical and Low Voltage System CAD symbols, details, riser and one-line diagrams, schedules, general notes, etc. with corresponding drafting standards and Plan and/or Booklet Specifications... or I can quickly learn to adopt and use your firm's templates.

I am an inquisitive, self-learning student currently gaining hands-on experience while finishing my college education. Currently, I am working towards a BS in Biomedical Engineering with a concentration in Mechanical Systems at California Baptist University. Outside of school, I am heavily involved in the collegiate design competition Formula SAE where I lead a team of six engineering students in designing, fabricating, and validating the chassis and ergonomic systems of Cal Baptist Racings' sixth competing internal combustion racecar. In the past, I have worked in a variety of roles in multiple fields, including electrical, warehouse, and student life, where I have gained experience in teamwork and the execution of engineering solutions. My plan for the future is to continue gaining engineering experience through Formula SAE, summer internships, and scholastic projects.
