About Me

Passionate about solving complex engineering challenges through innovative design and cutting-edge technology

With over 6 years of CAD and design experience, I specialize in designing and developing innovative solutions for complex engineering challenges. My journey began with a fascination for how things work and has evolved into a career focused on robotics, medical technologies, and advanced manufacturing processes.

I believe in the power of interdisciplinary collaboration and have successfully led teams to deliver projects that not only meet technical requirements but also drive advancement. My approach combines rigorous engineering principles with creative problem-solving to develop solutions that are both innovative and practical.

When I'm not designing new projects, you can find me mentoring young engineers on CAD and circuit analysis. I also like to spend my off time playing tennis and hiking.
