What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation, collaboration, and opportunities for professional growth.

I am a results-driven Mechanical Engineer with over 2 years of experience in designing, analyzing, and optimizing mechanical systems and components. My proficiency in CAD software, finite element analysis (FEA), and project management allows me to deliver innovative solutions to complex engineering challenges. I am passionate about continuous learning and applying cutting-edge technologies to drive impactful results in the field of mechanical engineering.

In my recent role at Taylor Corporation, I led a team to design a lift mechanism for a MiR250 robot, ensuring compliance with OSHA standards while improving operational efficiency. My work at Panasonic Energy involved optimizing EV cell production, where I designed a prototype cart that significantly reduced safety incidents and delivered substantial cost savings. I thrive in collaborative environments, working with cross-functional teams to ensure project success and improve efficiency.
