Mechanical engineer who has been working in the automation industry for the last 5 years. My design work has a concentration in complex highly integrated machinery. I have design everything from razor packaging assembly machines to chemical lab solution robots. My machine design experience has given a deep knowledge of sheet metal design and plastic part (molded/machined/3D printed) design. As a senior engineer I have taken projects from concept to production level completion. Almost all of my past work projects have been designed for manufacturing as they were mostly part of new product lines or retrofits for existing product lines. A benefit of working on conceptual projects as well has given me an expansive knowledge of prototyping as well.
