Hi, I'm Chris!
Mechanical engineer based out of Atlanta
Unequal parts dog dad, engineer, designer, photographer, traveler, and water lover [ironically] based out of the Atlanta area where you can often find him indulging in the vast assortment of ethnic cuisine.
Professionally, he is currently employed as a senior mechanical engineer responsible for the design and execution of custom automated machines. He continues to build on 10+ years of machine design experience ranging in manufacturing and production environments, prototyping methods, industrial automation, robotic applications, and systems integration spanning across automotive, medical, packaging, consumer goods, and home building industries located domestically and abroad. He also splits his time providing engineering design services by utilizing his expertise with CAD software and rapid-prototyping resources.
Foundationally, Chris's practical knowledge and skillset can be traced to his hands-on fabrication experience honed at a nationally recognized military subcontractor privately owned and operated by family. Additionally, he has completed Google's Career Certificate course in Project Management and is currently enrolled in their Data Analyst course.
When not working, Chris enjoys spending leisure time and exploring new trails with his dog, Austin, who was adopted May 5, 2018 from the Atlanta Humane Society. He is a lab + rhodesian ridgeback mix.
Photography is a hobby that Chris is slowly starting to rediscover the passion for after a few years hiatus. However, the convenience of highly capable cameras on our phones do not help.
Chris is also passionate about sharing his travels — mostly for himself through meticulously crafted photosets. They're a great way to relive past experiences and share them with friends. As with everything else, Chris is always thinking of ways to improve, rethink and redesign them for future travels.
