To make a long story longer, I used to be a diesel engine technician. It was a career that I thoroughly loved and enjoyed, but the overall physical fatigue and demands from that line of labor had the potential to limit my future well-being. The decision to pursue a degree in mechanical engineering was a logical solution to replicate this enjoyment from working on engines, but also a decision that would provide better future career opportunities. My academic endeavor was less-than conventional, as I was also responsible for a mortgage and funding my own tuition. Although I am married, I am not the type of individual to rely entirely upon my wife with the burden of financial assistance. An unfortunate result of my stubbornness is the notion of accepting an internship, as it could provide an obvious educational value but lacked necessary financial requirements. My participation in on-campus race car teams provided the perfect opportunity to obtain design experience, and to promote these designs in a competitive environment.

I have 20+ years of drafting and design experience with products ranging from desktop and floor model medical analyzers to sub-sea remotely operated vehicles. I am skilled with parts that must be machined and parts that must be molded (cast materials such as urethanes and injection molded engineering resins). I pay attention to the details and love the beauty of mechanisms and machines. I have worked with most of the major software packages, AutoCAD, Inventor, SolidWorks, ProE, etc. I am ready to assist with any mechanical drafting tasks you need completed on time and at a reasonable cost.
