I am a professional Mechanical Engineer specializing in precision parametric CAD modeling, mechanism design, and Design for Manufacturing (DFM). I transform concepts, rough sketches, or physical parts into robust, fully defined 3D assemblies optimized for real-world manufacturing. My core expertise lies in designing custom electronics enclosures. True Parametric Workflows: I build clean, organized feature trees driven by global variables and design intent. Need to scale a box or change a PCB standoff location? The model adjusts seamlessly without breaking. Design for Manufacturing (DFM): I don't just create pretty renderings. My designs account for real-world manufacturing constraints, including CNC machining clearances, sheet metal bend allowances, injection molding draft angles, and 3D printing tolerance management. Thermal & Structural Awareness: Backed by engineering fundamentals, I design with heat management (heatsinks, active/passive venting, natural convection) and structural integrity in mind. Software Stack: SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Onshape. Deliverables: Production-ready STEP/IGES files, manufacturing-ready STLs, clean parametric source files, and detailed 2D technical drawings. Let’s build something functional. Message me to discuss your project requirements!

My passion is product design; I love taking on challenging design problems and developing robust, cost effective solutions. I have 7 years of experience in mechanical design; in that time, I’ve worked on projects ranging from candle molds and custom guitar picks to exhaust manifolds and lube pumps. I’m proficient in 3D CAD design, and I currently use Fusion 360 for freelance work. Specialties: • Design for fluid flow: Optimized geometry for pulsed (like an exhaust manifold) and steady state (like coolant passages) flow conditions. Do not currently possess CFD analysis capability for freelance work, but have years of experience optimizing flow passages for high performance applications, and can apply that experience to any fluid design project. • Design for 3D printing: There is a common misconception that 3D printers can create any shape that can be imagined. While 3D printing can create shapes that are impossible with traditional manufacturing techniques, it has its own, unique limitations. Without a solid understanding of these limitations and how to account for them, 3D printing projects can become very frustrating very fast. • Design of mechanisms: Designing a system of parts that work together requires a considerable body of knowledge on top of simple part design. Assemblies must be robust against manufacturing variation, assembly variation, and have appropriate surface finishes in order to ensure that the parts will always go together and function as intended. • 2D drawings and GT&T: In most cases, the 2D drawing is still the legal document that defines the part; developing a drawing with a robust datum structure and proper tolerances is a critical part of turning an idea into a producible reality. Other proficiencies: • Design for sand casting: material selection, optimizing parting lines, core design. • Seal design: radial and face seal o-ring interfaces, as well as gasket sealing flanges. • Bolted joint design: proper bolt size and grade selection, grip length, thread engagement.

I am currently a full time Solidworks designer and fabricator for Ironworks Speed and Kustom, a high-end hot rod shop based in southern California. I am well accustomed with Solidworks and other similar CAD programs. My skills lie in problem solving and creativity. My work usually involves taking measurements, drawing rough sketches, designing the needed part in CAD, and then plasma cutting and bending it to work in a real life situation. What sets me apart from other candidates is my ability to design products that are both aesthetically pleasing and highly functional in real life. Anything can be designed on a computer, but it is necessary to know what is going to actually work. I am also currently a college student studying mechanical engineering.
