About
I am a highly skilled design engineer with a background in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Houston and several years of hands-on experience in both engineering and design cycles.
Proficient in SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor, and Fusion 360, I offer expertise in CAD modeling, as well as advanced FEA analysis and simulations using COMSOL and OpenFOAM. I have extensive experience reverse engineering complex components, particularly pump parts and impellers, having successfully contracted for companies like GTZ Industrial. My ability to understand intricate design challenges ensures optimal manufacturing outcomes, including cost-effective production and precision in machined, and casted parts. Notably, I was a winner of the 2022 US Southwestern (now National) Medical Device Make-a-thon, underscoring my innovative approach to problem-solving. Whether you're looking to develop a simple prototype or design high-precision parts for manufacturing, I can support you through all stages of the process to achieve your goals efficiently.
Quality, efficiency, and reliability are integral parts of my design and life philosophy. You can rest assured that any project that I complete for you will meet these standards!

I have extensive experience in CAD design and mechanical engineering, particularly in biomedical applications. At Dr. Zhengwei Li’s B.E.S.T. Lab, I used AutoCAD to design flexible electrode geometries and photomasks, and Fusion 360 to create complex molds for cell scaffolds. I also employed SLA printing to produce high-precision, cost-effective tissue engineering scaffold molds, saving up to 50% compared to traditional bioprinting methods. In addition, I applied MATLAB and Simulink to conduct electrical and mechanical simulations for flexible biomaterials and bioelectronics, optimizing designs before prototyping. I also utilized COMSOL for CFD simulations to enhance tissue scaffold designs, ensuring optimal mechanical and biological performance.

In my work under Dr. Ran An, I utilized SolidWorks and Autodesk Inventor to design and prototype a mechanical system and protective casing for a microfluidic electrochemical sensing device for sweat analysis. I also redesigned and rapidly prototyped analog systems for syringe pumps and commercial tools to improve the device’s efficiency and significantly reduce production costs, cutting component expenses by over 50% using 3D printing and generic parts. Additionally, I optimized PDMS microfluidic chip designs to maximize gas diffusion and ensure structural integrity under mechanical stress. My engineering work directly contributed to increasing throughput in capillary microfluidic systems and enhancing device performance in the study of Sickle Cell Trait.
