Profile
Mechanical design engineer aiming to integrate the design process with materials, manufacturing methods, process planning, assembly, testing and quality assurance. Versatile skill set and committed to continuous improvement and, design for manufacturing and assembly, DFMA. I believe in near future where, “Accurate, Fast, and Cheap; Pick two” is a legacy attitude, concerning product design.
