I lead the design and engineering of physical consumer products at Plasticlab, a studio I founded in 2020. Over five years I have taken 23 products from concept to production-ready documentation for established e-commerce businesses in the US, UK, and Europe, across consumer electronics, kitchen appliances, and desk hardware. Clients work directly with me throughout the full development process. My team includes mechanical engineers and electronics engineers when the project calls for it.

Most startups waste months and thousands of dollars on redesigns because they don't have a well-defined product strategy, and their CAD models arenโ€™t production-ready. My job is to de-risk your entire launch by ensuring your design is factory-ready for injection molding, CNC laser cutting or CNC machining before you commit to expensive tooling, saving you from the $50,000 mistakes that kill hardware startups. I am 100% committed to quality and accountable for your product's manufacturing success. As a certified new product development professional (NPDP), I help founders and product teams go from concept sketch to manufacturable CAD to market without costly rework. Using verified AI-augmented processes and workflows along with SolidWorks/Onshape CAD tools to speed up the design cycle and reduce iteration time. Iโ€™m a Certified SolidWorks Professional (CSWP) with 10+ years of experience in mechanical engineering, product development, and digital manufacturing. Iโ€™ve delivered 40+ successful projects, from consumer products and custom machines to electromechanical systems and prototypes now scaled into international markets. Core strengths include: - Design for Manufacturability and Assembly (DFMA) & GD&T to eliminate redesign costs - CAD to Prototype to Production workflows that shorten time-to-market - Collaboration and integration across electrical engineering, embedded systems and AI models development teams. - AI-augmented product development for faster iteration and higher accuracy Manufacturing & Production Expertise: - Injection Molding: Designing complex plastic enclosures with optimized draft angles, ribs, and uniform wall thickness to eliminate sink marks and warping. - 3D Printing: Not just for rapid prototyping and iterations, but also for commercialized solutions and products in the market. - Sheet Metal Design: Developing production-ready DXF files and flat patterns for laser cutting, bending, and welding. - Sand Casting & Die Casting: Optimizing part geometry for proper metal flow and de-risking the transition from prototype to heavy-duty industrial casting. - CNC Machining: Applying precise GD&T to ensure parts fit correctly the first time, reducing machining hours and scrap rates. Whether youโ€™re developing an innovative industrial solution, ergonomic consumer product, or complex mechanical system, I turn ideas into clear, executable designs ready for prototyping, real-world testing, and scalable manufacturing. When you work with me, you can expect a transparent, milestone-driven process: clear communication from day one, rapid concept iterations, and deliverables that are ready for prototyping or direct manufacturing. I provide detailed CAD files, DFM insights, and structured documentation so youโ€™re not just getting a design, youโ€™re getting a production-ready solution that reduces risk, saves cost, and accelerates your path to market.

โœ… Led hardware R&D at Meta Reality Labs โœ… 2+ years DFM & mold development at Cero Design - carbon fiber frames for Orbea, Unno, Stevens to industrial design for Rร˜DE โœ… Manufacturing-ready CAD in PTC Creo Parametric, not just concept geometry โœ… Top 1% of designers on Contra โœ… "A rare combination of deep technical understanding, strong design sensibility, and the ability to think end-to-end" - Liz R., Founder I'm an industrial designer based in Barcelona with a background in engineering-driven product development. I've worked embedded in two of the largest tech companies in the world, and I bring that same standard of technical rigour to hardware startups and product teams that need a designer who owns decisions, not someone who executes briefs. My process starts with the manufacturing constraint, not the aesthetic. That means fewer redesigns, lower tooling risk, and design decisions that hold up in front of engineers and investors. What I bring to your project: - DFM & Mold Design: draft angles, wall thickness, parting lines, single-pull tooling strategy - Mechanisms & Assemblies: moving parts, fastening systems, structural validation - Manufacturing-ready CAD in PTC Creo Parametric: the most engineering-grade parametric tool on the market - Concept development: ideation, digital sketching, and AI mockups to align on direction fast, before heavy CAD investment - Physical prototyping: in-studio Bambu P1S for rapid 3D printing, fit checks, and ergonomic validation before committing to tooling - High-end visualization: for investor decks, launches, and validation moments that matter My process: I start with a short research and pre-engineering phase to map constraints early: ergonomics, regulation, assembly logic, cost targets. From there I move into ideation with digital sketches and AI mockups to align on direction fast, then into volumetric CAD in PTC Creo Parametric, KeyShot renders for design validation, and finally DFM and CMF refinement, so the design is ready to manufacture, not just ready to present. I've worked across wearables, medical devices, AI-integrated hardware, consumer electronics, and autonomous vehicles. Most relevant work is under NDA, reach out and I'll walk you through what's relevant to your project. Projects start at $2,500. I work on fixed-price milestones with phase-end reviews built in.

๐Ÿ‘‹ Hi, Iโ€™m an Industrial Designer who loves turning ideas into real, useful products. Iโ€™ve been working in product design for over 3 years, focusing on making things that are functional, well-crafted, and emotionally engaging. My favorite part of the process is taking a sketch or idea and bringing it to life through 3D modeling and printing. I own and operate multiple 3D printers and have years of hands-on experience with different materials and techniques. I specialize in rapid prototyping and small-batch production, especially for FDM printing. If you're looking for someone who understands how to take an idea from concept to real-world product, Iโ€™m here to help. One of my proudest achievements is growing my own 3D product brand. My original printable designs have been downloaded over 6,000 times and followed by 200+ users across global design platforms. These arenโ€™t just numbers โ€” they reflect my ability to create designs that people find valuable, reliable, and worth sharing. ๐Ÿ”ง What I can help with: Creative product ideation & functional design 3D CAD modeling (Fusion 360) 3D printing optimization & testing Photorealistic rendering Sustainable design thinking Design for manufacturing (DFM / DFAM) Technical drawings & documentation Iโ€™m friendly, detail-oriented, and committed to delivering designs that not only look good but work great in real life. Whether you need a concept visualized, a prototype printed, or a design refined for production โ€” Iโ€™d love to collaborate. Letโ€™s make something meaningful together.
