I am an efficient and innovative design engineer with ~4 years experience in product design and manufacturing. I am proficient in solid 3D modeling as well as complex 3D surfacing. I have experience with machined part design, injection-molded part design, flat patterning (sewn goods), stamped part design, thermoforming, and metal fabrication. The bulk of my work experience has taken place in a small business setting that has not only provided the opportunity to fully hash out designs from the sketchpad to prototypes to full production, but has also given me the creative freedom to try new or innovative production methods not afforded to a standard engineer. My strengths lie in my versatility, my ability to quickly find creative, cost-effective solutions to product design problems and my strong CAD background.

I am a senior industrial designer based in Korea with 20+ years of experience in hardware product development, focusing on automotive accessories and medical devices. I help product and engineering teams take ideas from first sketches to tooling and production. My work covers concept development, industrial design, mechanical layout, DFM, and coordination with tooling, molding, machining, and assembly vendors. Key areas of experience: - Automotive accessories: vent-mounted phone holders, parking permit plates, in-vehicle mounts, card/sticker holders, compact injection-molded assemblies, small mechanisms - Medical devices: clinic-grade HIFU/RF systems, handpiece ergonomics, housing architecture, and interface packaging - Robotics & equipment: intelligent cleaning robots, educational robots, industrial terminals, medical equipment housings Recent projects include vent-mounted smartphone holders, parking permit solutions for vehicle interiors, and clinic-grade HIFU/RF lifting equipment (console and handpieces), delivered from concept and architecture to production-oriented CAD. In addition to design, I maintain a trusted Korean manufacturing network (tooling, injection molding, machining, assembly). For clients who need more than just CAD, I can help you move from design to prototypes, pilot runs, and mass production with realistic, DFM-conscious solutions. Tools: - CAD & surfacing: Alias Studio Tools, Rhino3D - Visualization: KeyShot - Graphics & documentation: Adobe Photoshop & Illustrator, basic Figma and InDesign I am used to working as a remote extension of in-house teams, using clear written and async communication. If you need a senior designer who can think about both design intent and manufacturing reality, I’d be happy to discuss your project.
