I build automated 3D inspection workflows and data strategies for precision manufacturing operations.

United States
Message

At PCC Structurals, I lead 3D data strategy and CAD model development from engineering blueprints for precision manufacturing operations. I build and maintain automated inspection templates with Python and PolyWorks to streamline workflows and remove operational bottlenecks.

Previously, I managed robotic 3D scanning hardware and automated data-acquisition deployments across cross-functional R&D workstreams at PCC Structurals. I tracked program scope and milestones while creating technical documentation, SOPs, and training resources that accelerated technology adoption.

My background also includes high-volume 3D model processing at Digital Scan 3D, 3D design and visualization work for iTRACS and SpaceView, and PHP process automation. I bring hands-on experience connecting physical manufacturing, 3D CAD modeling, metrology, and digital process improvement.
