CAD & Design
SolidWorks
I have used SolidWorks for robotics, tooling, accelerator components, production parts, and manufacturing documentation. I used it for FRC Team 4079 and OA Robotics from 2019 to 2022, and now use it as my day-to-day CAD tool at work for full assemblies, part design, shop-ready drawings, inspection documentation, and design-for-manufacturing workflows.
