PORTFOLIO
The portfolio showcases my most notable and non-confidential design and engineering work since 2012. Up until 2024, I have collaborated with over 15 clients on a total of 26 projects. These projects primarily focus on tech products, robotics, automotive, and machinery. My involvement spans various phases, including concept design, design strategy, HRI (Human-Robot Interaction), HMI (Human-Machine Interface), detail design, CAD, rendering and presentation, CMF (Color, Material, and Finish), and DFM (Design for Manufacturing). While a few projects reached the prototyping phase, the majority have gone into production.
