About

I am a Mechanical Engineer with a specialization in Mechatronics and Product Development, focused on turning ideas into functional prototypes and technology products.

My work combines CAD design, Fusion 360, 3D printing, electronics, embedded systems and software development. I enjoy working across disciplines, from designing functional mechanical parts and electronic enclosures to integrating ESP32 microcontrollers, sensors, batteries and connected applications.

I have developed complete prototypes involving ESP32-based electronics, Hall and PVDF sensors, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), custom 3D-printed components and Flutter mobile applications. I have also designed functional CAD parts including electronic enclosures, threaded assemblies, modular systems and components optimized for FDM 3D printing.

My main areas of work include:
• Product development and prototyping
• Fusion 360 and parametric CAD
• Electronic enclosures and functional parts
• Design for 3D printing / FDM
• Mechanical fit, tolerances and assemblies
• ESP32, sensors and embedded electronics
• IoT and BLE-connected products
• Flutter mobile and desktop applications

I am particularly interested in projects where a client has an idea, sketch, electronic prototype or PCB and needs help transforming it into a practical, well-designed physical product.
