I am a hands-on Additive Manufacturing Engineer with experience across FDM, SLA, Binder Jetting, and HP Multi Jet Fusion. I’ve led production teams, optimized print workflows, performed DFAM-based file prep, and supported reverse engineering projects. I’m currently pursuing a Master’s in Embedded Systems and enjoy turning complex designs into robust, manufacturable solutions. Over the years I’ve trained teams, delivered technical workshops, and collaborated with sales and project teams to estimate costs and meet tight delivery timelines. I’m passionate about the intersection of hardware and software, and I thrive in fast-paced environments where precision and creativity matter.
