About
There are few things more satisfying than helping people build their visions quickly and cost effectively. With over 25 years of experience as an independent designer and CAD expert, I can help you realize the vision for your part, project or company. Nothing is too big or too small.
I have formal training in tools such as Alias, ProE, SolidWorks and a working knowledge of onShape and Fusion 360. Over the years I've contributed to the development of nearly two hundred complex products that range from large-scale medical imaging X-Ray systems to handheld and wearable connected devices. I've served companies in the consumer, healthcare and commercial/industrial spaces and have in-house professional grade prototyping equipment from Markforged and Stratasys.
Also of note, I have over a decade of experience in tech entrepreneurship and recognize that, most of the time, a successful design is about people and building relationships... not just beautiful objects.
