Overview
I am a highly experienced Solution Engineer with over a decade of hands-on expertise in automating and extending AutoCAD through advanced programming solutions. I specialize in designing and delivering custom tools and plugins that streamline drafting workflows, ensure drawing consistency, and integrate seamlessly with enterprise systems.
With a deep understanding of AutoCAD’s .NET API, AutoLISP, and command automation, I bridge the gap between CAD design and software engineering—empowering teams to work smarter, faster, and with fewer errors.
