Supplies advanced CAD service's to different departments within Sonion. This includes training new employees in CAD and PDM, supporting projects with conceptualization of different solutions and maintaining current part/assembly drawings, Main focus is on complex modeling of injection molded parts and 2D technical drawing packages for production. Secondary roles are tooling design and product data management.

Under the Name of MSD&F I operate with detail drawings, 3d CAD models and physical prototype models. I translate the clients requests into CAD CAM and personally create CNC models. Several of these projects can be found in the portfolio and website page.

My task was to design the exhibits for the clients and produce the CAD drawing for presentation towards our clients. I was hired for a part-time position when my internship ended.

During my internship I designed the bar and chairs that the company used for the 2010/2011 house4kitchen exhibition in Germany. My work included idea sketches, 3d modeling, creation and presentation of the technical drawings of the exhibit. Pictures of these designs and final result can be found in my portfolio.

At Palatov Motorsport my work was focused on design in a new bucket seat for the D2. Other work involved creating composite parts and conceptual work for a new car model.
