I'm a Mechanical Design Engineer with over 8 years of experience in advanced manufacturing, process optimization, and simulation-driven product development. My journey spans across cutting-edge domains like Additive Manufacturing (AM), Design for AM, and computational design—driven by a strong foundation in CAD, simulation tools, and hands-on engineering.
I specialize in developing cost-efficient, high-performance designs by leveraging technologies such as topology optimization, generative design, and lattice structures. My work has consistently focused on translating complex engineering challenges into scalable, validated solutions through rigorous testing and data analysis.
Throughout my career, I’ve thrived in R&D-intensive environments where cross-functional collaboration and innovation are key. I'm passionate about bridging the gap between design and manufacturing, ensuring that every concept is both functional and production-ready.
Whether it's optimizing parts for aerospace or building algorithms for advanced 3D printing workflows, I enjoy working at the intersection of design, simulation, and real-world performance.
