Great products begin with a great design that includes considerations for realistic fabrication and assembly. My history of deep involvement with a variety of manufacturing methods allows me to incorporate a long-term vision of the product life cycle throughout the design process. This constant forward-thinking prevents major redesign during the manufacturing phase and ensures projects remain aligned with customer goals. I specialize in 3D mechanical design, analysis and prototyping including: - Design-for-manufacture using: 3D print, CNC machine, injection mold, die cast, sheet metal, laser cut, etc. - Electronics integration - Structural/thermal/vibration analysis - Prototype manufacturing & assembly - Mechanical drawing package creation - Production interfacing I have designed, built and tested successful (some patented) products in the following industries: - Mechanized medical devices - Medical research test equipment - PCB & housing assembly tooling - Aerospace test equipment - Aerospace showroom cabin interiors - SCUBA diving propulsion - Underwater electronics enclosures - Bicycle lights - Photography lights and straps - Mechanized sports training equipment - Small satellite structure & hardware - High-altitude passenger vessel

Hello! My name is Jeremy and I am a licensed Civil Engineer with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering. For the first 2 years of my Civil career I was an AutoCAD/Civil3D designer/drafter for my local County Government. My role was to work with project engineers and the lead project designers to create a set of approved construction plans for capital improvement projects. Since December of 2020 I have been a Plans Review Engineer. In this role I am responsible for reviewing road, stormwater, and site layout plans submitted for proposed sub divisions and building permit applications for construction and/or permit release. That being said, I am confident that I can interpret and design to any applicable local standards, and get you an acceptable set of plans in a timely manner. My drafting job overlapped with Covid so I am very experienced with getting drafting instructions via email as well as communicating back any questions or concerns while working 100% remotely. Working for the government I have become very effective at navigating local and state codes/standards. I do still have my full-time job, so I am looking for part-time work only as I will be will be drafting in the afternoons or weekends only. I am, however, available via texts/emails during my normal working hours, and willing to take calls on occasion. I am completely open to one-off projects, but ideally am looking for a more long-term, ongoing project-by-project relationship. I am fast, efficient, and very communicative and would love to help provide you and/or your business with quality drafting. If you feel I may be a good fit for you, please send me an invite! I look forward to hearing from you and hopefully doing business together in the future. Thank you.
