MY STORY
I got into CAD early and started working summers at Forestdale while I was still in school. After graduating, I went straight into our engineering team doing drafting and design. That background is what makes this role different for me. I'm not just in sales. I understand how things get built, what works in production, and where the problems show up before they cost you money.
Now I'm able to help our clients get the products they need, come up with solutions to the challenges they're facing, and help them capture more opportunities. Solution design and project management are what I do. You start here. The first conversation is with me, and from there, I bring in the right people at the right time.
Give Life to Ideas.
WHAT YOU GET
01.
Got a napkin sketch? We can work with that.
Some of the people I work with show up with nothing more than an idea. Maybe a sketch, a set of requirements, or a product they need developed. They know what they need the part to do, but they don't have a design yet. That's where our engineering team comes in. We take your requirements, develop the concept in CAD, model it out, and review it for manufacturability along the way. We present it back to you, walk through how it addresses what you need, and nothing gets built until you've seen it, reviewed it, and approved it. If something needs to change, we work through it together. We stay connected the whole time.
02.
​Already have a finished design? We'll make sure it's ready for production.
Other people I work with already have a complete design. Full CAD model, drawings, tolerances, everything. They're ready to go. But ready to go doesn't always mean ready to produce. Our engineers open up every design that comes through and do a proper review. We're looking at tolerances, materials, and features that might add cost without adding function, geometry that could cause problems on the floor. If we find ways to save you money or make the part work better, we will bring those suggestions to you before we quote anything. We're not going to step on your toes, but we're not going to leave anything unsaid either.
03.
Full build. You deal with us. We deal with everything else.
​You shouldn't have to coordinate multiple suppliers to get one product built. We manage the entire process from design through production, finishing, and delivery. We have the right capabilities and the right people in place to take care of everything, so there's one point of accountability for the whole project. Start to finish.
04.
If you get the order, we get the order. That's what matters.
At the end of the day, our priority is to help you get your order. We don't want to leave any money on the table that we could save you. Whatever we can do to make your parts more competitive in the market you're selling to, we want to do. Because if you get the order, we get the order. That's the whole point.
