About me

Engineering work designed to be understood and improved.

My work combines mechanical-engineering fundamentals with modern digital tools. I approach each project by defining the problem, documenting assumptions, researching the relevant materials or systems, completing the analysis, and presenting the result clearly.

I am especially interested in product development, structural and strength analysis, simulation, automation, artificial intelligence, and practical software tools.

Project process

A repeatable path from idea to result.

  1. 1

    Define

    Clarify the problem, constraints, assumptions, and success criteria.

  2. 2

    Research

    Gather technical information, references, dimensions, and material data.

  3. 3

    Analyze

    Complete calculations, compare options, and document limitations.

  4. 4

    Build

    Create the design, report, graph, simulation, or functional prototype.

  5. 5

    Improve

    Review the result, identify risks, and create the next project version.
