Industrial Designer & Additive Manufacturing Specialist

I am an Industrial Designer specialised in complex product development, mechanical modelling, and large-scale Additive Manufacturing. With a career spanning from research at INEGI to industrial furniture design, I bridge the gap between creative design and rigorous engineering.

Key Expertise:

• Product Development & IP: Proven track record in high-complexity electronic products, resulting in two international patents (US11906400B2, US11187626B2) for liquid monitoring systems.
• Additive Manufacturing at Scale: Currently managing operations at Evolt, overseeing a farm of 150+ FDM 3D printers, focusing on production efficiency and material science.
• Advanced Modelling: Expert in parametric design, mechanical CAD, and medical modelling (Mimics/3-matic), with extensive experience in injection moulding and investment casting.
• Education & Mentorship: Dedicated to training the next generation of designers and engineers as a faculty member and trainer at IPCA, ESAD, and CENFIM, as well as conducting industrial context training at OTIIMA.

A long-time advocate for open-source hardware and the maker movement, I continue to contribute to the RepRap and Blender communities. I founded Mazecreative in 2016 to empower startups and established companies like MAKEIT and APISTECH through advanced prototyping and visualisation.
