I’m a mechanical engineer who notices the small things most people eventually accept, and can’t help thinking about how to improve them.
I pay attention to how systems behave in the real world: how they’re used, how they wear over time, and where friction, mechanical or otherwise, starts to show up. My background in manufacturing and automation keeps me grounded in what’s actually buildable, scalable, and reliable, not just what looks good on paper.
I’m drawn to designing things that work the way people expect them to, whether that’s a physical interface, a piece of infrastructure, or a system behind the scenes, and then refining them until they perform a little better, last a little longer, and fail a little less.




From concept through detailed design—turning a stated problem into geometry that builds, holds tolerance, and makes sense to the people who use it.

Process engineering as a daily habit. Designing the test that proves it works, the data that catches drift, and the documentation that lets a vendor build it without asking.
