I have about 4 years experience doing design and drafting in solidworks and autocad. I have used the softwares in different capacities, including making detailed engineering drawings for manufacture with BOM's and section views and creating intricate models from both drawings and physical parts. I have worked for both small and large corporations in the medical device, construction, energy, packaging, and automotive industries. Aside from my experience working for different industries, I can provide solutions to some of the most complex and challenging design projects. I have taken formal training classes in Solidworks and have worked closely with solidworks application engineers to complete design heavy tasks. I have overcome many design intensive challenges in the past and hence know how to take a model idea or concept and turn it into a reality. I genuinely enjoy taking on new challenges with cad modeling projects and I consider myself fairly competent in the field.
