Detail-oriented CAD designer specializing in Design for Manufacturing (DFM) — I turn concepts into accurate, production-ready models and drawings. Certified SolidWorks Associate working primarily in Fusion 360, with a focus on clean geometry, realistic rendering, and real-world functionality. I don't just make things look right — I design for how they're built, assembled, and used. That means thinking through wall thickness, tolerances, fastener placement, and manufacturing method from the start, not bolting it on at the end. A few years of teaching CAD sharpened how I communicate: I break complex problems into clear workflows, stay organized, and hit deadlines without sacrificing quality. Clients tell me I'm easy to work with and quick to respond to feedback. I've also used a wheelchair since I was two, which means adaptability and problem-solving have been part of how I think for as long as I can remember — it naturally shows up in how I approach usability and accessibility in design. What I bring to your project: ✔ 3D modeling & concept development ✔ Production-ready technical drawings & assemblies ✔ DFM-focused design (machining, injection molding, additive) ✔ Clear communication & fast turnaround Let's talk about your project and get it production-ready.
