About

I am a recent Mechanical Engineering graduate, I have developed a solid foundation in engineering principles with a focus on manufacturing, equipment designing, and implementing mechanical systems and processes. I am eager to apply my technical knowledge and problem-solving skills to contribute to the development of innovative and efficient mechanical systems. I have hands-on experience designing and testing prototypes, and proficiency in using AutoCAD, Fusion 360, Autodesk Inventor, and other 3D design software. I am a quick learner, detail-oriented, and possess in-depth knowledge of mechanical engineering principles, materials science, and thermodynamics.
