Message

I’m a Mechanical Engineering graduate from Ontario Tech University with over a year of hands-on experience in structural steel design and fabrication. During my internship at Boerhof Welding Ltd., I designed 30+ structural assemblies using SolidWorks, performed load and stress calculations, created fabrication-ready drawings, and coordinated with clients, suppliers, fabricators, and tradespeople. I’m a SolidWorks Certified Professional with experience in FEA, GD&T, AutoCAD, and design for manufacturing. I’m particularly interested in mechanical design, product development, manufacturing, and engineering roles where I can apply my technical skills while continuing to grow professionally.
