My expertise lies at a unique crossroads between artistic design and mechanical engineering. As a freelance designer, I offer clients a rare combination: strong creative sensibility, supported by a practical engineering foundation. For entrepreneurs, artists and inventors seeking to turn a concept into a physical object, I can help take the project beyond design: identifying suitable manufacturers and gathering quotes. My education and early professional career gave me the vital tools for mechanical product design: sound CAD modeling and drawing practices, design for manufacturability, comparing quotes, sourcing and vetting manufacturers, and using a top-down design approach to create solutions which fulfill their performance, space, and cost requirements. I have thrived taking on challenges which call for inventive solutions. Feeling inclined toward more creative expression, I started designing and making jewelry, repurposing my mechanical design background to create innovative gemstone and pearl settings. This evolved into my own fashion brand, carving a niche for high-precision, sculptural-mechanical jewelry and accessories with an otherworldly design language which pays tribute to futurism and science fiction. Past projects ranged from simple one-offs, like a custom acrylic cabinet for home stereo equipment, to the more technically complex, such as the complete redesign of a high accuracy, multi-speed syringe pump for medical research.
