I specialize in turning concepts into production-ready 3D models using Fusion 360. From functional prototypes to full-scale manufacturable designs, I deliver clean geometry, practical engineering solutions, and files optimized for 3D printing, CNC machining, or any manufacturing process you need. Fast turnarounds, reliable results, and flexible support for any CAD or product-development task you throw my way. 💡 Services I Offer --- 3D CAD Design & Modeling – Precise, detailed models ready for manufacturing. --- Prototyping & Product Development – Ensuring your design works before it hits the factory floor. --- 3D Printing – I offer in-house 3D printing to create accurate prototypes helping validate your designs. --- 2D Drawings & Technical Docs. – Fully detailed drawings & specifications ready for manufacturing. --- Design for Manufacturing (DFM) – I optimize every design for real-world production. --- Mechanical Assemblies & Component Design – Engineered for precision, durability, & performance. 🧠 Why Work With Me With over a decade of engineering experience, I’ve partnered with inventors, small companies, and large manufacturers across diverse industries. I stick with every project until the design works the way the client wants it to. I’m careful about the details, and I don’t cut corners. I do what it takes to keep things moving and finish on time. Lastly, I never end a project without making sure the client is 100% satisfied. 🚀 Let’s Bring Your Idea to Life Whether you need a full product designed from scratch or improvements to an existing model, I can help you move from idea → CAD → prototype → production. 💬 Send me a message with your project goals, and let’s discuss how we can make your design a success.

I'm a University of Michigan-trained Mechanical Engineer (Honors GPA) with 8+ years of hands-on experience across the chemical, automotive, and plastics industries — including 8 years at The Dow Chemical Company and Dart Container, two of the largest manufacturers in their respective sectors. At Dow, I started up and operated a $40M isocyanate reactor system from the ground up — writing batch recipes, control logic, alarm strategies, and operating procedures — and was awarded the 4 Carat Award, Dow's highest engineering honor, for bringing 6 plants into full regulatory and process safety compliance. What I can help you with: -Process safety engineering & compliance (PSM, LOPA, RCPHA, PHA, F&EI/CEI, relief systems, SIS) -Reactor/process system design, start-up, and troubleshooting -Automation & control systems (MATLAB, Simulink, C++, Fortran) — I also taught a 400-level Control Systems lab at U-M -Six Sigma GBPL-certified process improvement, root cause investigation (Apollo RCI), and lean manufacturing -Quality systems & audit prep (ISO 9001, IATF 16949, ISO 14001/45001) -Technical documentation, SOPs, PFDs/PFMEAs, and engineering reports -CAD/engineering software: AutoCAD, NX, SolidEdge, CATIA V5, SAP I bring the same discipline I used to bring multi-million dollar chemical plants into compliance to every project — clear documentation, data-driven decisions, and a relentless focus on safety and quality. Available for consulting, technical writing, engineering analysis, and automation/controls projects. Let's talk about what you're building.
