About
I help clients turn concepts into manufacturable, visually impressive products — from early mechanical layouts to production-ready CAD models and renderings.
I’m a Mechanical Engineering graduate from Auburn University, where I co-designed and built Auburn’s 1st-place unmanned electric watercraft for the 2025 ASNE P.E.P. competition. My background combines:
• CAD & 3D Modeling: SolidWorks, NX, complex assemblies, DFM & GD&T
• Analysis & Validation: FEA, tolerance analysis, design reviews
• Automation & Visualization: Python scripting, SolidWorks Visualize rendering
I bring a hands-on, manufacturing-minded approach to every project — whether it’s a product enclosure, mechanical system, or small machine. Clients appreciate my ability to think like both a designer and a builder.
If you need a precise, fast, and collaborative engineer who can take your idea from sketch to final model, let’s talk — I’m ready to jump in and deliver results that look great and work perfectly.
