Designing
motion.

I turn demanding mechanical problems into elegant, manufacturable systems - combining mechanism design, tolerance thinking, prototyping and validation.

01 / Engineering philosophy

Built for the
real world.

KineticForge treats engineering as a chain: requirement, geometry, material, manufacture, test, refinement. The visual language echoes gears, orbital motion and precision instruments.

“The best mechanism is not the most complicated one. It is the one that performs predictably, can be built repeatedly, and survives the environment it was designed for.”

02 / Engineering toolkit

From forces
to form.

Capability clusters replace generic percentage bars: each discipline is shown as a working part of the engineering system.

01

Motion Systems

Linkages, shafts, bearings, cams and actuator interfaces designed around load paths, serviceability and repeatable motion.

02

CAD + GD&T

Production-ready assemblies, drawings and tolerance schemes that communicate intent from engineering desk to machine shop.

03

Prototype + Test

Bench testing, failure analysis and design iteration that convert assumptions into measurable engineering evidence.

03 / Selected projects

Proof in
the mechanism.

Representative engineering case studies written around the decisions, constraints and outcomes that make physical product work credible.

01 · Actuation

Compact rotary actuator housing

Reworked a constrained enclosure around thermal growth, fastener access and assembly sequence, reducing part count while improving serviceability.

02 · Fixtures

Precision inspection fixture

Designed a repeatable fixture architecture with datum strategy, poka-yoke details and clear inspection access.

03 · Thermal

Passive cooling module

Balanced fin geometry, airflow and packaging constraints for a compact heat-dissipation concept.

04 / Experience

Sketch to
shop floor.

A practical progression from analysis and drafting to owning mechanical architecture, design reviews and validation.

2023 - Present

Senior Mechanical Engineer

Own mechanical architecture for electromechanical products, lead design reviews and turn field failures into measurable design changes.

2020 - 2023

Mechanical Design Engineer

Developed assemblies, production drawings, tolerance schemes and prototypes while partnering with fabrication and quality teams.

2018 - 2020

Graduate Engineer

Supported test rigs, component selection, experimental analysis and early-stage product concepts.

05 / Contact

Have a mechanism to solve?

Tell me what needs to move, carry, cool, align or survive. I’ll bring a systems-thinking approach to the conversation.
