I’m a fabrication-first AutoCAD designer with 20+ years of hands-on experience supporting heat exchanger manufacturing and industrial fabrication. My background includes welding, fabrication, inspection, and CAD support in production environments where accuracy, repeatability, and code compliance matter. I’ve worked in a heat exchanger manufacturing facility (Thermal Engineering International) supporting production teams with CAD drawings used for pressure-retaining components, tube sheets, shells, structural supports, and welded assemblies. I understand how CAD decisions affect fit-up, weld sequencing, distortion control, inspection, and final assembly—because I’ve supported these processes directly on the shop floor. I don’t just draft parts. I create shop-ready, fabrication-ready drawings that reduce rework, eliminate shop questions, and support efficient production. I currently operate Guided Light Welding LLC, providing remote AutoCAD and fabrication drawing support to manufacturers and fabrication shops that need reliable CAD without hiring full-time staff.

I am a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer with over 8 years of experience in product design, R&D, and manufacturing. I specialize in CAD modeling (CATIA, SolidWorks, Inventor), sheet metal & CNC design, and turning prototypes into production-ready solutions. I have hands-on expertise in mechanical assemblies, industrial prototypes, and custom machinery, and I can deliver precise 3D models, technical drawings, and design-for-manufacturing (DFM) solutions. Whether you need innovative product development, complex assembly design, or production-ready CAD models, I provide accurate, professional, and efficient solutions to meet your project goals.
