Between my industrial design background and my experience working at both large and small tech companies, I have developed a love for collaborating with a team to come up with an idea and then refining that idea until it is ready for the market. My expertise is in co-developing a concept and then using paper sketches or Figma to rapidly prototype and get us to our desired outcome as quickly as possible. Once we know our direction and understand our users, I deliver pixel-perfect designs that are ready for marketing to post or for engineers to start building. I design everything including: logos, websites, apps, social media posts, and entire brand identities. I love the process of telling the story of an idea and delivering the idea with as much craft as possible.Industrial Design

Your time and money would be wasted! According to research, ignoring the value of attention to detail is the biggest mistake a 3D designer or animator can make. Only a few of us truly understand the value of attention to detail! It's the most crucial aspect of your design or animation. 𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐞: Only designing and modeling alone are not enough. Accurate textures and lighting have the power to transform a 3D design or animation from good to great. 🌟 𝟐) 𝐈𝐧 𝐌𝐲 𝟕.𝟓 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞, 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐔𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐋𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐬 𝐎𝐮𝐭:💡 Did you know? Many designers prioritize making money and completing projects quickly, often neglecting the importance of establishing "Emotional and Psychological Connections With Their 3D Design Or Animation." 𝐏𝐬𝐲𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 𝐁𝐞𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐔𝐬𝐞𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: 🧠💖 Remember, great 3D designs or animations that resonate emotionally are more likely to be remembered. Aesthetically pleasing designs play a significant role in increasing user retention and engagement. 𝐄𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐞: Humans are inherently emotional beings, and these emotions greatly influence our perceptions and behaviours. 𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐄𝐱𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞: If your design has attention to detail, your prospect will hold on and dive into the design. This emotional response can easily lead them towards purchasing your product. 🛒😊 It’s crucial to select a designer who knows and understands what’s at stake. I always encourage constructive criticism and work with a client-centric approach, 🎯 which allows me to deliver the best results. 𝟑𝐃 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐈 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞: ✅ 3D Product Photorealistic Render And Animation ✅ 3D Packaging | Mock-up With 2D Label Design ✅ 3D Hard Surface Modeling ✅ 3D Explainer Video ✅ 3D Game Assets ✅ 3D Sculpting ✅ 3D NFT ⚠️Note: I can provide the following file format(.BLEND, STL, Obj, Fbx).

Hi! I'm Gerry, and I'm an industrial designer, electrical engineer, and maker. My whole life, I have been curious about how things are made and how we use objects and technology to interact with our world and each other. Raised by an artist and an engineer, I grew up feeding my creativity by building things and taking things apart, sketching, soldering, prototyping, turning ideas into real working objects and I just can’t get enough of that process! I have a passion for learning and I’m always working on projects and hobbies in my free time. I graduated from Villanova University in 2012 with a degree in Electrical Engineering and worked full time as both a Systems Engineer and Electronics Engineer in the commercial airframe avionics and space vehicle industry for 5 years where I gained valuable experience collaborating with large and small project teams in the office and on the production floor. In 2013, I discovered the field of Industrial Design to be a perfect match for my interests and skills, a combination of creativity, inventing, hands on prototyping, and technical understanding. While intensely self-studying and refining the skills I would need to work towards a career in Industrial Design, I started freelancing as an Industrial Designer then moved to Chicago where I studied and completed my Master's degree in Industrial Design from the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) in 2019. I'm currently the Product Design Engineering Manager at TEAMS Design Chicago where I make good use of my creative and technical backgrounds to lead our technical product development and prototyping efforts. It has been a blast to grow and develop the Protoyping Lab at TEAMS Design where we design, build, 3D print, test, and refine the user experience, mechanisms, and circuits inside consumer products as they grow and develop their way towards production. Some clients I have designed for include Dremel, Werner, Airbotx, Sloan and more.Industrial Design

As a graduated Industrial Designer my focuses and skills range all over the map. Consistently called a jack of all trades, I used to do everything from wood working to 3d modelling at my old job as a retail display designer. I want to personally help people deliver their idea and actually see it in real life! Often the barrier between a good and a great design is being able to see and touch it.Industrial Design
