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 specialize in turning product ideas, sketches, existing designs, and real-world problems into functional CAD and physical prototypes. My approach combines digital design with hands-on fabrication. I design parts around how they actually need to fit, assemble, print, and function — not just how they look on screen. I work in Fusion 360 and regularly take designs directly from CAD into FDM prototypes for fitment testing, assembly, and iterative revision. I can help with product development, existing Fusion 360 modifications, mechanical parts and assemblies, brackets and mounts, electronics enclosures, component packaging, functional 3D-printable parts, STL/STEP redesign, reverse engineering, and prototype development. I’m comfortable with both quick-turn modifications and larger product-development projects. If you already have a CAD model that needs changes, send the file and tell me what needs to change. If you only have a sketch, measurements, photos, or an idea, that’s enough to get started.
