About
I’m a Mechanical Design and Simulation Engineer with a First-Class degree in Mechanical Engineering and hands-on experience in CAD modeling, mold design, and structural analysis. I specialize in using SolidWorks, AutoCAD, and ANSYS to bring engineering concepts to life—from idea to manufacturable design.
Over the past year, I’ve worked with clients across Nigeria and Europe, delivering high-quality CAD solutions including custom mold designs, lifting arm mechanisms, marine propeller shaft analysis, and piping supports. My projects are backed by a strong foundation in technical drafting, FEA, and engineering principles, with a focus on precision and real-world functionality.
If you need 3D modeling, engineering drawings, mold tooling, or structural simulations, I’m here to provide reliable and timely solutions tailored to your needs.
