About
I’m a Mechanical CAD & 3D Product Designer specializing in Fusion 360 and design for 3D printing and manufacturing.
I create accurate, functional 3D models from sketches, drawings, measurements, reference images, or concepts. My experience includes mechanical parts, product enclosures, brackets, assemblies, prototypes, and 3D-printable designs.
I also have hands-on experience with professional 3D printing, which allows me to design with real manufacturing and printing limitations in mind — including tolerances, clearances, part orientation, assembly fit, and material considerations.
Services I can provide include:
• 3D CAD modeling in Fusion 360
• Product and mechanical part design
• 3D-printable models and STL/3MF preparation
• Enclosures and component housings
• Assemblies and parametric designs
• 2D drawings and manufacturing documentation
• Design modifications and revisions
• Prototyping and design optimization
Whether you have a rough idea, a sketch, an existing part, or a specific set of dimensions, I can turn it into a clean, functional CAD model ready for prototyping or manufacturing.
I focus on accuracy, clear communication, and practical designs that can actually be manufactured.
