About

With nearly a decade in various tech and design industries, I specialize in full product development, rapid prototyping, DFMEA/DFM and reverse engineering. My Solidworks CAD skills enable me to tackle complex surfacing, large assemblies and 3D scan data to create accurate, manufacturable models and precise technical drawings.

I also maintain a fully equipped prototyping workshop with multiple FDM and SLA printers and a range of prototyping equipment to turn concepts into tangible products quickly.
