Objective         A Challenging career in field of CAD drafting and design visualization that will utilize my highly effective visual communication skills, background as an artist, and twenty years of experience demonstrating a strong commitment to teamwork. Have hands on experience with paper/model space, layouts, view ports, text styles, dimension styles, layer standards, Xrefs, Block attributes, plotting, 3D modeling and rendering.

Have drawn CAD plans for large collection of detailed model sailboats. Demonstrate strong organizational and detail skills to specify complex hull shapes, sail plans, rigging hardware, structural details, radio control component installation and keels to correct hydrostatic design.

Have modeled, animated, and rendered various artistic movies using Lightwave 3D

Have designed built and successfully flown large collection of balsa wood and tissue paper rubber powered model airplanes. Detailed plans show structural airframes, and basic aeronautical details.

Collaborated with artist showing sculpture as part of outdoor exhibition "Reclaiming Nun’s Field". Created AutoCAD plans, resulting in problem-free fabrication. Transformed artistic goals into practical installation without betraying overall artistic vision.

Built seven-foot lap strake dinghy from detailed plans. Interpreted complex drawings to complete long-term project resulting in safe, seaworthy sailboat with foot-pedal steering, retractable bilge board, and thirty square foot gaff sail. Creatively solved transport and handling problems of storing dinghy in small apartment, navigating dinghy within confined elevator space, and successfully launching on Charles River without aid of car.
