My work involves creating mechanical designs in SolidWorks with a focus on Design for Manufacturing (DFM), coordinating with digital modeling, controls, and fabrication teams, and assisting with mechanical analyses such as Rigid Body Dynamics (RBD) and Finite Element Analysis (FEA).I also help produce engineering drawing packages that follow ASTM standards, troubleshoot assembly and performance issues, and maintain detailed mechanical documentation to support quality control and project collaboration.
