MECHANICAL DESIGN ENGINEER // PROFILE

With over 3 years of hands-on mechanical design experience, I specialize in taking complex hardware concepts from initial napkin sketches to mass-manufacturable assemblies. My work spans high-throughput industrial machinery, carbon fiber aerospace components, and IP67 medical device enclosures.

I place uncompromising value on ASME Y14.5 GD&T compliance, structural integrity through ANSYS FEA simulations, and seamless Design for Manufacturing (DFM) so your tooling partners hit the ground running with zero ambiguity.
