About
I am a product designer and CAD specialist with a civil engineering education and several years of experience designing functional products for manufacturing and fabrication.
Born and raised in Oregon, I received technical training in both Oregon and New Zealand in engineering modeling, materials, statics, and CAD drafting. This background gives me a strong foundation in geometry, tolerances, and real-world design constraints.
Since 2021, I have worked on the design, prototyping, and iteration of consumer and utility products for commercial sale. My work focuses on taking ideas from concept through CAD modeling and prototyping into production-ready designs. Products I helped develop have generated over $100,000 in cumulative revenue, demonstrating both design quality and market fit.
I specialize in functional product and mechanical part design for manufacturing methods such as injection molding, CNC machining, sheet metal fabrication, and additive manufacturing. My approach emphasizes strength, fit, and manufacturability rather than purely visual design.
