About

I am a mechanical and electromechanical technician with experience in maintenance, electrical systems, mechanical systems, and 3D CAD design.

I use SolidWorks for 3D modeling, mechanical part design, assemblies, technical drawings, and design modifications.

I can assist clients with converting ideas, sketches, or 2D drawings into accurate 3D CAD models and professional technical documentation.

My strengths are attention to detail, technical understanding, problem-solving, and practical knowledge of mechanical and electromechanical systems.

I am committed to delivering accurate, clear, and professional work while respecting project requirements and deadlines.
