I am a CAD design professional with 2 years experience in Solidworks and 3 years in Fusion 360. My expertise is primarily in mechanical design. I have spent 7 years in aircraft maintenance working on turboprop engines and propellers which has given me a breadth of hands-on experience in constructional theory and part design. Over the past 7 years, I worked closely with engineers while analyzing technical drawings to improve parts and identify a root cause of failure. Furthermore, I have spent the last 3 years honing my skills in 3D printing on professional SLA printers. This knowledge has given me great insight into designing for additive manufacturing.

I help turn ideas, sketches, existing parts, and mechanical problems into practical, manufacturable designs using SolidWorks and hands-on manufacturing experience. My focus is functional mechanical design—not just models that look good on screen. I consider how parts will actually be machined, fabricated, assembled, or 3D printed. My services include SolidWorks 3D modeling, mechanical and product design, reverse engineering, fabrication drawings, design for manufacturing (DFM), 3D-printable parts, fixtures and jigs, prototype development, CNC/machining-oriented design support, and practical technical consulting. I’m especially well suited for focused projects where you need an existing design improved, a mechanical problem solved, or an idea turned into files that can actually be built. If you have a sketch, photo, existing CAD file, measurements, or simply a problem you’re trying to solve, I can help determine the most practical approach and develop a buildable solution.
