About
I am a Mechanical Tool Design Engineer with over two decades of experience in die design, progressive tooling, and CAD-to-manufacturing workflows. My expertise spans Autodesk Inventor, CATIA V5, Siemens NX, and SolidWorks, with advanced skills in manufacturing process evaluation, NC programming, and CNC machining.
I specialize in progressive die design, and CAD automation using VBA and iLogic, enabling faster, more reliable design cycles. My career includes leadership roles at Tower Automotive, Maruti Suzuki, and Godrej & Boyce, where I delivered tooling solutions for global OEMs including VW, Porsche, Skoda, Ford, and GM.
Currently, I am focused on remote consulting and freelance projects, leveraging Inventor CAD to support U.S. and international clients in tool design, automation, and workflow optimization.
