ProtoPeak Engineering
Skills Used: CAD Design (Fusion 360 and Solidworks), Prototyping, Design Analysis, Customer Management, Team Management
ProtoPeaks Engineering was a design business that I started on the side to earn extra money and gain more experience as I learned more about engineering. It was an extremely valuable time as I got to work on a wide variety of projects and with a wide variety of people. I learned a lot about how to manage customer expectations and deliver on time. I achieved almost a 5-star rating with 45 rated projects and close to 60 completed.
I had contractors (fellow students) help when I had a large amount of projects to work on. This gave me great experience managing a team. I had a lot of fun with this business, but it took a lot of time to manage, so I decided to put it on hold while I finished my Bachelor's degree. My interests have since changed, but I'm really proud of what I accomplished.
Below you can see a sample of the projects that I worked on myself. If you'd like to see what real customer's said about me, view my profile.

I recreated this CAD model from a physical piece sent to me by the customer
I recreated this piece of a video camera from a sample the customer sent me. There were a lot of complicated geometries and screw holes that had to fit just right, but in the end if fit perfectly!
