I am a Senior Mechanical Engineer with more than 12 years of experience in industrial equipment design, material handling systems, and engineering process improvement. My background includes leading the design, manufacturing, and integration of complex mechanical systems, with strong expertise in SolidWorks, manufacturing documentation, BOM management, project execution, and facility layout planning. Over the course of my career, I have held engineering leadership and senior design roles with companies including Bohl Crane, Williams Industrial Service, Surface Combustion, LifeFormations, and Morgan Olson. In these roles, I have led projects from concept through production, developed 2D and 3D fabrication-ready designs, managed engineering documentation and schedules, and worked closely with sales, purchasing, fabrication, and installation teams to ensure successful project execution. I have also supported the implementation of SolidWorks PDM systems and helped improve engineering workflow, automation, and data management processes. My experience includes designing heavy industrial equipment and integrating it into customer facilities, including equipment placement, structural coordination, foundation requirements, and site layout development. I also have hands-on experience with furnace systems, HVAC support for industrial equipment, and collaboration with shop-floor teams, which gives me a practical understanding of both technical design and real-world implementation. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Toledo and earned my Engineer in Training certification by passing the Fundamentals of Engineering exam. In addition to my engineering leadership experience, I have a strong interest in CAD automation, database integration, and engineering process optimization using tools such as VBA, C#, SQL, PDM, PLM, and ERP systems. I am passionate about developing efficient engineering solutions, improving workflows, and bridging the gap between design, manufacturing, and technology to deliver practical, high-value results.

I have 5 years of industrial equipment design experience and currently work as a mechanical engineer. I have designed large scale 5000 piece assembly’s for companies like Firestone Tire and Goodyear and small packaging machines for 3M. I have done many industry first such as designing a machine that welds in ground pool walls together with the first ever open head design. I have a Bachelors of Applied Science in Mechanical Engineering Technologies and an Associates of Applied Science in Electrical and Electronics Engineering Technologies.

I began my career in the CNC machining industry. I spent 7 years as a CNC machinist/programmer. I first encountered SolidWorks while working as a Machinist. I decided to move into mechanical design. I began taking classes in pursuit of a degree in Mechanical Engineering. While in school I took a position with a company that manufactures Roll Forming equipment. I worked as an Equipment designer for 3 years before accepting a Design Engineer position with a manufacturer of Industrial Pneumatic Tools. I worked my way up to Plant Manager and helped the company prosper for 4 years before we were purchased by our largest competitor. I still work for the new owners on a part time/remote basis. My role is mainly new product design and occasionally support of existing products.
