I’m a fine jewelry CAD designer with over 18 years of full-time experience creating production-ready models for custom fine jewelry.
I focus on clean, accurate CAD files that are ready to cast, with careful attention to tolerances, geometry, and stone-setting details. I enjoy working with jewelers, retailers, and manufacturers who have a design vision and want a thoughtful, reliable CAD partner to help bring it into production.
Services include:
CAD for custom engagement rings, wedding bands, pendants, and any other fine jewelry
STL files optimized for casting and 3D printing
Realistic renderings for client presentations
CAD support for redesigns, repairs, and replications
I’m detail-oriented, efficient, and easy to work with, and I take pride in creating files that move smoothly through casting and setting without unnecessary revisions.
If you’re looking for dependable CAD support for fine jewelry, I’d love to talk about your project.

I am a graduate student in Product Design and Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania with extensive experience in 3D modeling, 3D printing, and new product design and development. My experience has ranged from creating simple working prototypes to working on projects in FDA regulated industries.
I founded a startup at the age of 19, and am more than familiar with the importance that quality work, good communication, and deadlines have to business owners and project leads. I am also no stranger to long hours and hard work, and I pride myself in finding simple solutions to complex problems.
As a graduate student, I have a flexible schedule and am willing to work closely with others involved on the project to make sure it is completed quickly and to specifications.
I look forward to helping you with your business and products!

Hello, and thank you for taking the time to visit my profile.
I became a freelance entrepreneur, rather than an employee, because it provides me with the freedom to live and enjoy life with my family – as well as the freedom to help more people bring their ideas to life no matter where I am in the world.
I’m a full-time freelance CAD designer available 24-hours a day, 7 days a week at your convenience. I'm typically located in the eastern standard time zone; however, I am able work with you during your preferred hours of operation according to your time zone at your request.
Sifting through my portfolio will reveal that I 'wear many hats' as a designer. Yet, it also shows that design quality is not sacrificed due to my vast skillset. Throughout my life I have gained a variety of hands-on experience working with tools, tearing things apart, fixing things and building new things.
I loved growing up learning and figuring out how to build, fix and create anything, but, I always wanted to know how ideas became the 'things' we interact with. That's when I discovered design and became a designer. I became a freelancer when I discovered employment didn’t allow me to focus on quality and it limited my growth in the design field.
Our ideas become the creations that animals, people and our environment interact with. Therefore, our creations are a major factor in the overall quality of life and our daily interactions. So, I believe the absolute most critical stage of creation is the design stage. As you can see by viewing my portfolio I am more than able to successfully complete structural design drawings. But, my passion is for concept, industrial and product design.
As a designer, I wield the power of creation. Designers can create 'things' that range from virtual reality to biological life. By focusing on quality during the design process we improve the quality of life and its daily interactions. I embrace that ability and pride myself in the quality of my designs regardless of which industry I'm designing 'things' for.
Concept Design and Industrial/Product Design provide opportunities for like-minded designers like me to add quality to the world while helping others bring their dreams into reality. I thrive in ‘think tanks’ and excel in complex designs. Simple or complicated, I apply the same thought process to all design projects: "Insanity is repeating the same mistakes expecting different results." -Albert Einstein.
AVAILABLE DESIGN SERVICES:
~Design for concept visualization (sketches, 2D plans and/or 3D digital models)
~Design for 3D Printing (FDM, SLA, SLS)

~Design for manufacturing/production
~Structural Design for construction (commercial and residential)
~Reverse Engineering (of any pre-existing object or images for proportioning)
~2D Technical Documentation
~Patent Drawings/Exploded views/Assembly Drawings
I specialize in Autodesk Inventor, Autodesk Fusion 360 and AutoCAD. I can also modify existing Solidworks files and deliver files in Solidworks formats. I'm proficient in 2D plans, 3D modeling, mechanical design and structural design. In addition, I can write G-Code for CAM machines and provide FEA Simulations.
I can deliver all the necessary digital files for future patent applications, prototyping and manufacturing. All data will be electronically transferred, backed up, and delivered in each client's preferred format(s). I can also deliver a physical prototype to your door at your request.
Please allow for a 24-hour initial response time to messages and invites. I am a very busy person and I dedicate my sole attention to each active client once I begin working with you. If you have questions or need help with your project, please contact me to discuss your needs in more detail and discover how I can help you.
Thank you for your time reading my profile, I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi there! My name is Christina and I am a CAD jewelry designer living in Pittsburgh, PA. I have about 8 years of experience in CAD Jewelry Design, specializing in custom bridal pieces. From 2016-2022 I worked in several custom jewelry design stores as a CAD Designer/CAM Technician. I spent many days splitting my time between designing CAD models, checking and repairing other CAD models, and operating/maintaining 3D printers and CNC mills. In 2022 I decided to start freelancing remotely in order to travel a little bit more and work on a more diverse range of projects. Since then, I have collaborated with several companies who specialize in custom bridal jewelry as well as a few private fashion jewelry labels.
I have expertise in CAD jewelry design as well as experience in CAD/CAM processes such as 3D printing and CNC milling. The primary CAD programs I use are Rhino 3D and Zbrush and I am also a beginner in 2D software such as Adobe Illustrator and Procreate.
I have collaborated with several clients across the U.S. in which I've provided 3D models and renderings using my expertise in CAD jewelry design and background in manufacturing. Aside from my background and CAD skills, I am reliable, highly communicative, and a great team-player.
