areas of Excellence

CAD Modeling
CAD systems expert with seven years of experience in part and assembly design for both initial concepts and modifications.
Well-versed in advanced modeling tools such as surface modeling, gear design, modeled threads, wire routing, topographic optimization, and sheet metal design.
Seasoned PDM user with multiple large scale database clean-up projects delivered that involved automated data pulls, data analysis and CAD automations.
Developed dozens of user intuitive custom automations for simulation and streamlining design workflows.
Experienced with designing for a broad range of materials and fabrication technologies.

2D Drawings
Drawings are an integral part of a contract between you and your manufacturer. They need to be clear, accurate, and concise about the expectations for the part delivered. Expertise in visual communication and the language of technical drawings is critical to avoid potential pitfalls with vendors.
Hundreds of drawings authored and modified.
Highly skilled in using GD&T and served as a drawing reviewer for large clients in earlier roles.
Well-versed in part and assembly drawings and familiar with advanced features like BOM construction, exploded diagrams, cut-away sections, and creating custom title blocks.

Analysis
Developed custom CAD automation for overlay analysis featured above and documented dozens of overlays with it to validate manufacturer’s models.
Familiar with wall thickness, draft, and undercut analysis to ensure great injection molded parts.
Adept at using tolerance stack-up analysis to set expert tolerances for parts within the context of their assembly and operating envelope.
Exceptional at breaking down and communicating tribal knowledge to new team members through accessible documentation on design processes, custom automation UI, and design standards.
