Who do you want designing your project? The recent graduate with a few year's experience, or the veteran designer with decades of experience? I am the latter. I create robust geometrically constrained models. Everyone likes to say they design to ASME Y14.5 standards. My experience has been that most people don't even know what it says. The drawing must completely define the deliverable without specifying process, or creating unnecessary requirements that artificially drive up cost. Too many designers do not understand these basic concepts. An engineering drawing is a contract between the supplier and customer to provide parts as documented. There must be a single source of model information tying together part models, assemblies, and drawings. I am an experienced modeler for milling & turning, sheet metal development and programming, additive manufacturing, rigid and flexible piping routing, cable routing, 2D to 3D electronics layout translation, mechanical interface control, assemblies, and test configurations. My documentation is accurate and concise. It provides full definition of the parts and assemblies without adding unnecessary constraints and notes that only make things more difficult and artificially drive up cost. I take pride in the quality of my work, because My name is being associated with it. I have an SCI (Secure Compartmentalized Information) vetted background check active through 2026. I have had multiple top secret security clearances (inactive). "True genius is not knowing everything, it is knowing where to Find everything." Albert Einstein "Science fiction becomes science fact."

Freelance AutoCAD Designer & Drafter | Architectural & Commercial Projects I am a freelance AutoCAD designer and drafter with extensive experience producing clear, accurate, and construction-ready drawings for architectural, commercial, and industrial projects. My focus is on drafting execution—turning concepts, markups, and redlines into precise documents that are easy to build from. I work daily in AutoCAD and am highly proficient in scaled drawing production and full PaperSpace workflows, including title blocks, viewports, annotation scaling, x‑references, and disciplined layer standards. I deliver clean layouts, plans, elevations, sections, and details suitable for permitting, construction, and as-built documentation. My background includes long-term work within the engineering and construction industry, which gives me a strong understanding of design intent without approaching projects from an overly engineering‑heavy perspective. This allows me to support architects, contractors, developers, and consultants who need dependable drafting support without unnecessary complexity. I have experience supporting architectural and commercial spaces, including coordination of floor plans, layouts, and construction details, as well as working alongside teams using 3D models to ensure alignment between models and 2D drawings. One of my key strengths is construction experience. I have seen designs through installation and field execution, worked directly with construction teams, and updated drawings based on real-world conditions. I draft with constructability in mind—helping reduce RFIs, rework, and confusion in the field. Services Offered AutoCAD drafting for architectural & commercial projects Scaled plans, sections, elevations, and details PaperSpace setup & drawing standards Permit, construction, and as-built drawings 3D model coordination support Revisions, redlines, and overflow drafting support If you’re looking for a reliable freelance AutoCAD drafter who understands both design intent and construction reality, I’m ready to support your project efficiently and professionally.

Turning Complex Concepts into Production-Ready Reality Are you looking for a mechanical design expert who not only understands advanced engineering but can communicate it flawlessly? As a seasoned Mechanical Design Engineer and Vocational CAD Instructor, I bridge the gap between complex technical design and clear, actionable deliverables. Through my consulting practice, I partner with clients to take their ideas from the initial brainstorming phase all the way to the finish line. Whether you need precise 2D manufacturing drawings, full 3D modeling, or USPTO-compliant patent illustrations, I deliver technical documentation that protects your intellectual property and meets strict industry standards. Why Work With Me? Design for Manufacturability: I don't just build theoretical CAD models. Because I operate an advanced 3D printer farm—featuring Bambu Lab systems—I actively prototype and test designs in real-world materials like TPU, PETG, and PLA. I know exactly how a digital model translates into a physical, manufactured product. Crystal-Clear Communication: As an educator and the creator behind the MrMezCAD instructional brand, my core strength is breaking down complex engineering challenges into clear, understandable steps. You will always know exactly where your project stands. Comprehensive Expertise: From structural shop drawings to detailed GD&T and consumer product development, I provide reverse engineering and detailing services meticulously tailored to your specific manufacturing constraints. Let’s get your project designed, prototyped, and ready for production.
