About
I am a highly skilled Mechanical Engineer with over two decades of experience, specializing in HVAC and MEP systems design with a keen focus on energy efficiency and strict adherence to ASHRAE standards. My expertise extends into the innovative realm of LED lighting product development, where I have honed my abilities in design, prototyping, and manufacturing coordination. Utilizing advanced software such as SOLIDWORKS, AutoCAD, Revit, and HAP, I have successfully delivered complex projects for both residential and commercial buildings, ensuring seamless integration and optimal performance. My career includes significant roles at BV Engineering Inc., where I currently serve as a Contract Mechanical Engineer, designing and optimizing HVAC systems, and at LEDPAX and Mercury Lighting, where I developed cutting-edge linear LED fixtures and components. I have a proven track record of conducting site inspections, providing technical support during construction, and preparing detailed documentation to meet industry standards. My technical proficiency is complemented by my ability to collaborate effectively with architects, contractors, and engineers, ensuring that all projects align with client specifications and regulatory requirements. I have worked with overseas vendors to source materials and oversee production, enhancing my global perspective on engineering challenges. Additionally, my experience includes creating 3D and 2D drawings with ASME Y14.5 and Y14.1 standards, incorporating GD&T, and generating CNC programs for manufacturing processes. At Edison Price Lighting, I collaborated with production engineers to design fixtures that fit existing factory capacities, while at Liquor Bottle Packaging International, I introduced SOLIDWORKS to streamline design processes and trained staff, showcasing my leadership and adaptability. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Kathmandu University and have completed graduate coursework in Manufacturing Engineering at Wichita State University. As a Certified SOLIDWORKS Professional, I bring a strong educational foundation and continuous learning mindset to my work, staying updated with the latest industry trends, technologies, and regulations. My strengths lie in problem-solving, precision engineering, and a commitment to sustainable design practices. I offer a wide range of services, including HVAC system design, LED fixture prototyping, CAD modeling, and BIM coordination, and I am particularly interested in tackling projects that involve renewable energy integration, advanced lighting technologies, and innovative MEP solutions. My goal is to contribute to projects that not only meet but exceed client expectations, driving forward the future of engineering with creativity and technical excellence. I am eager to explore opportunities that challenge my skills and allow me to apply my diverse experience to new and exciting ventures in the field.
