About

I’m an Industrial Design Engineer with a strong background in product development and advanced 2D/3D CAD, including AutoCAD. I have experience delivering end-to-end technical projects, from concept to manufacturing-ready documentation, with solid knowledge of materials, metal fabrication, and extrusion processes. Currently, I work as a freelance Mechanical CAD AI Trainer, designing parametric workflows and improving CAD model performance through data-driven approaches .

I’m particularly interested in projects that combine engineering and real-world applications, such as outdoor or sports lighting. I work with high attention to detail, independently and collaboratively, aiming to deliver efficient, robust, and production-ready designs.
