I’m a mechanical engineer with experience in robotics and automation. I’ve worked on projects including metal 3D printer design at VulcanForms, the robot Ribbot on the show BattleBots, and fixture design at Lutron. I earned bachelors degrees in mechanical engineering and robotics engineering from WPI. I specialize in rapid design and prototyping of mechatronic systems. My preferred CAD software is fusion 360 and I also use solidworks, onshape, and creo. I also have experience programming robots for R&D and can use Arduino, ROS, MATLAB, and more. I’m looking for mechanical design work for simple or complex projects. I can brainstorm solutions for problems, develop the solution in CAD, and use rapid manufacturing processes to prototype a solution, and program basic functionality to make a proof of concept.
