The Beginning

We all have to start somewhere. If you have never brought a product to market or are bringing a new product to market and want to make sure you are doing it right from the beginning, you are in the right place. 

Design for Manufacturing - Not Just for Looks


Most first-time founders focus on making their product work, but a working prototype is not the same thing as a manufacturable product.

Decisions around material selection, wall thickness, draft angles, fastening strategy, tolerances, and load paths determine whether your design scales smoothly or collapses under tooling costs and production delays. I help you engineer your product correctly from the beginning so it can be tested properly, refined intelligently, and transitioned into manufacturing without expensive redesign cycles. The goal isn’t just to make it functional it’s to make it buildable.

Testing That Reduces Risk - Not Just Checks a Box

Testing should de-risk your product, not just validate your excitement. Many founders waste time and money testing the wrong variables or skipping critical stress points entirely.

I help you structure testing around real-world use cases, failure modes, and manufacturability constraints. That means understanding how your product behaves under load, over time, and at scale. When your design is engineered with testing in mind, each iteration becomes deliberate and strategic, not reactive and expensive.

From Prototype to Production - Without Surprises

The biggest mistakes don’t happen in CAD, they happen when you try to tool and produce the product. Small design oversights compound into tolerance stack-ups, assembly issues, quality inconsistencies, and ballooning costs.

I bridge the gap between design intent and factory reality. With practical mechanical engineering experience and a manufacturing-first mindset, I help you make decisions early that prevent costly downstream problems. Working with me means fewer unknowns, fewer surprises, and a clearer path to bringing your product to market with confidence.
