About

I am a 3D CAD Designer specializing in mechanical design, product development, 2D drafting, 3D modeling, and technical drawings. I help clients transform sketches, concepts, reference images, measurements, and existing drawings into accurate and practical CAD designs ready for presentation, prototyping, fabrication, or manufacturing.

My areas of expertise include 3D product modeling, mechanical CAD design, 2D to 3D conversion, technical drafting, reverse engineering, manufacturing drawings, CNC ready drawings, and detailed CAD documentation. I focus on creating clean, precise, well structured models while maintaining the dimensions, functionality, and design intent of each project.

Whether you need a product concept developed into a detailed 3D model, an existing part recreated digitally, a 2D drawing converted into 3D, or manufacturing documentation prepared from a finished model, I can help turn your requirements into clear and usable CAD deliverables.

I approach every project with attention to accuracy, efficiency, functionality, and production requirements, with the goal of making the design process smoother from concept through final delivery.
