I’m a mechanical designer with 20+ years of CAD and product development experience, specializing in SolidWorks part and assembly design, reverse engineering, and 3D printing. My background spans manufacturing, engineering, and IT, giving me a unique perspective on both design precision and practical execution. Highlights: Mechanical Design: Created 3D models, assemblies, and technical drawings for prototypes, production parts, and custom equipment. Reverse Engineering: Converted legacy parts and sketches into precise CAD models, often optimized for CNC machining, sheet metal, or 3D printing. Product Development: Delivered functional prototypes, BOMs, and DFM/DFA improvements to reduce cost and lead time. Manufacturing Support: Worked directly with vendors and production teams to ensure manufacturable, cost-effective solutions. Engineering Leadership: Managed cross-functional projects, balancing design, quality, and delivery in industries ranging from lab automation to firearms manufacturing. Specialties: SolidWorks 3D Modeling & Assemblies Reverse Engineering & Part Conversion 3D Printing & Prototyping Manufacturing Design (Sheet Metal, Machining, Plastics) Technical Drawings & GD&T BOMs, PDM, and Revision Control

I hold a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and I work full-time as a manufacturing engineer. I use CAD (SolidWorks specifically) daily and am very proficient. I am able to assist with everything from product concept to producing a fully working prototype. My experience includes designing for plasma cutting, laser cutting, 3D printing, sheet metal bending, assessing for manufacturability, machineability, tolerance stack-up and a whole lot more. Electromechanical and off-the-shelf component integration are my specialty. Keeping costs down is something I can help you with greatly. If it can be done, I can get it done.
