Bringing innovative mechanical products to market is no easy feat. It's a journey filled with challenges and potential pitfalls. As a seasoned founder, I've raised over $2M in funding and reduced product costs by 64% though supply chain / design improvements in my own appliance manufacturing venture. Now it's my goal to help Entrepreneurs and SMEs accelerate their product to the next stage of growth. Particularly with clients in the renewable energy and consumer appliance industries. Specializations include: • Product Launch: Flexible guidance for entrepreneurs through all stages of growth including product market fit, research, rapid prototyping, operations planning, venture capital and exit strategy. • Mechanical Engineering: Product specification, CAD modeling, prototyping, product testing, design for manufacturing, product certification, product support, and patent development. • Supply Chain: Manufacturer sourcing, supplier relationship management, production planning, product protection strategy and design for manufacturing. I see my clients as partners in a shared journey to success. Let's connect and take your product to the next level together!

With more than 15 years of experience, I work with start-ups and SMEs to design, prototype and manufacture consumer products. I strive for close collaboration with clients and building personal relationships that last for years. I am the founder of Waterloo Technical Inc., a product development firm started in 2012. I specialize in industrial design; mechanical and electrical systems; firmware programming; and manufacturing. I work across these disciplines to transform great ideas into disruptive products that contribute to business growth for my clients.

🚀 Have a product idea, sketch, prototype, or existing design that needs to become profitable? I turn product concepts into manufacturing-ready designs that actually get built—profitably. Most product designers focus on CAD. I focus on Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and making sure your product can be manufactured at scale without surprises, cost overruns, or timeline delays. 👤 WHO I AM Certified SolidWorks Expert with 5+ years specializing in product design, DFM, injection molding, and manufacturing optimization. I've completed 18+ projects with 100% client satisfaction—helping startups, entrepreneurs, and established brands turn ideas into real products that manufacturers quote accurately. 🔄 MY PROCESS: IDEA → CAD → PROTOTYPE → SCALE ⚙️ STEP 1: GENERATE SOLUTION (IDEA) Analyze your product idea, identify manufacturing challenges, develop practical cost-effective approach—BEFORE any CAD modeling starts. (Result: Clear roadmap, no wasted effort) 📐 STEP 2: CAD IT INTO 3D Manufacturing-ready SolidWorks models with DFM built in from day one. Draft angles, wall thickness, parting lines, assembly logic that factories understand. (Result: Production-ready files, zero confusion at factory) 🖨️ STEP 3: PROTOTYPE & OPTIMIZE In-house 3D printing for fit testing, design validation, and iteration. Physical prototypes prove your design works BEFORE tooling investment. (Result: Validated design, reduced risk, faster to market) 📈 STEP 4: SCALE IT UP Production-ready technical drawings, material specs, manufacturing guidance for reliable high-volume production.
