About
My core expertise is UG NX, with strong hands-on experience in CATIA, SolidWorks, Creo, and AutoCAD 2D. I specialize in part design, complex assemblies, sheet metal, surfacing, and detailed drafting, ensuring designs are fully manufacturable and release-ready.
I support automotive and mechanical components across industries, including prototype development, mold & die support, and tooling-friendly designs. I am available for short-term, long-term, bulk design projects, or hourly engagements, with a strong focus on quality, speed, and minimal rework.
