About
I’m a Mechanical CAD Designer with strong experience in manufacturing‑ready models, tooling design, injection‑molded components, and CNC/EDM machining workflows. I specialize in creating precise 3D models and detailed drawings that move smoothly from design to production.
My background includes automotive handle assembly, electrode design for EDM sinking, and CNC toolpath planning, giving me a deep understanding of how parts are actually made — not just modeled. I’m skilled in 3D modeling with a focus on accuracy, clean geometry, and fast redline turnaround.
I’ve completed projects involving molded part design, machined components, fixture concepts, and manufacturing process improvements. I hold an A.A.S. in Manufacturing Engineering Technology and Machine Tool Technology, and I bring both engineering knowledge and hands‑on shop experience to every project.
If you need production‑ready CAD, tooling, or manufacturing‑focused design, I can deliver clear, reliable models and drawings that meet real‑world requirements.

Experience
- CAD ENGINEER HUF North America · Full-time Nov 2025 – Present 10 mos Greeneville, TN, USA I am a Mechanical CAD Designer with hands‑on experience in CNC machining, EDM electrode design, injection‑molded part development, and automotive component assembly. I specialize in creating production‑ready 3D models, detailed drawings, and tooling designs that move cleanly from concept to manufacturing.
- Machine Shop CAD Operator American Greetings · Full-time Jul 2022 – Nov 2025 3 yrs 4 mos Afton, TN, USA I verified CAD data against physical parts and created accurate models when drawings or files were missing. My role involved checking dimensions, confirming geometry, correcting mismatches, and building new CAD models for legacy or undocumented components. This gave me early hands‑on experience with precision measurement, CAD accuracy, and production‑aligned modeling, setting the foundation for my later work in manufacturing engineering and tooling design.
