About

I am a Mechanical Design Engineer with hands-on experience in designing mechanical components and assemblies using SOLIDWORKS. My work focuses on transforming engineering concepts into practical, manufacturable designs while applying engineering principles, simulation, and design for manufacturing to develop reliable solutions. Alongside my engineering role, I serve as a SOLIDWORKS User Group Leader, Instructor, and Mentor. Through the SOLIDWORKS User Group Network (SWUGN), I organize technical sessions that bring together students, professionals, and engineering enthusiasts to share knowledge, exchange ideas, and strengthen the design community. As a SOLIDWORKS Instructor, I deliver practical, project-based training covering part modeling, assemblies, engineering drawings, and real-world design workflows. My goal is not only to teach the software but also to help learners understand the engineering thinking behind effective mechanical design. โœจ My focus is to: Design innovative and manufacturable mechanical products. Apply CAD, simulation, and engineering analysis to solve real-world problems. Mentor aspiring engineers and promote engineering excellence through education and community leadership. Continuously learn and contribute to advanced manufacturing and sustainable engineering solutions. I believe that great engineering combines technical expertise, creativity, and continuous learning to create products that make a meaningful impact.
