Mechanical CAD Technician

Welcome to my online Résumé & Portfolio,
My experience:
I have over 20 years' experience in Mechanical Drafting using AutoCAD, including 14 years in 3D parametric solid modeling using Autodesk Inventor and Mechanical Desktop, and extensively worked with Microsoft Office & Adobe Creative Suite.  In addition I have computer experience in troubleshooting hardware/software issues, assembly, and installation.
My work history:
I have worked at Nordic Systems Corporation for 17 years, a company that produced mainly for the petroleum industry that manufactured: Industrial Hose Reels for both fire fighting and fuel delivery, Cargo Tank Truck Manifold Systems, Hydraulic & Pneumatic Emergency Valves, and Hot Head Product Valves. In June, 2006 I was laid off due to its sister company Reelcraft who consolidated all of Nordic operations to Columbia City, Indiana.

In the late spring of 2006 I partnered up with 4 co-workers from Nordic's manufacturing plant floor to start a small business named "Unique Welding & Fabricating Ltd." to manufacture a competitive product as Nordic’s. I worked for the company from my home office being the solitary workforce for the company's engineering department with the responsibilities of producing engineering/sales drawings, provided engineering sales support, hose reel calculations, documentation, spread sheets, and creating marketing materials.

As of August of 2007 my employment ended (14 months) with Unique; and in October 2008 I resigned my office as Director and sold my shares to the company. I am now pursuing other ventures in the hopes of new employment within a small or large corporation that will utilize my abilities.
