Technical illustrator at NCCER who established a 2D and 3D production workflow for construction education.

At NCCER, I created 2D illustrations, 3D models, renderings, animations, and curriculum content for construction education and training. I established a 2D and 3D production workflow and trained two colleagues to create and deploy assets across construction crafts.

I also developed an interactive 3D simulation tool for scenario-based construction learning. In freelance work, I designed and prototyped premium micro-earbuds for Ear Micro, focusing on product appearance and industrial design.
