Most engineers learn to use the machine. I built the machine. The CNC router that cut the frames, the laser engraver that prototyped the parts, the robots that won the competitions: all built, not bought. That is the gap I close between digital design and physical reality.

What I bring to a build

01

Digital Fabrication

CNC machining, 3D printing, laser cutting. Built and operated full fabrication workflows from G-code to finished part. Not just operating machines; designing and commissioning them.

CNCLaser Cutting3D PrintingG-code
02

CAD / CAM

Autodesk Certified in mechanical CAD. Fusion 360 for full design-to-manufacture pipelines: technical drawings, tolerance specifications, and production-ready CAM programs.
