Optimised manufacturing processes in Asia and Mexico for hockey equipment.

Optimised 3D scanning, 3D modeling and mold generation protocol for professional hockey sticks, going from 4 days for the whole process to 2 hours, mold ready

Acted as a resource person for production, providing technical support and training 3D modeling technicians (SolidWorks) in Mexico and producing reference materials for operators.

Managed the project for the standardization of the geometry, modeling and development of all models of hockey sticks for the production transfer from Mexico to Asia and managed to do this project in 6 months rather than 2 years.

Created an innovative patented technology related sticks "Focus Weight", which was put into production (Advance Design).

Developed an innovative overmolding process for goalie sticks "Vibration Dampening Technology" (VDT).

Identified solutions related to molding and finishing issues of carbon fiber parts, which has accelerated production and reduced rejection rates.

Received repeatedly projects aimed at finding innovative solutions related to the improvement of existing products with his ability to find original ideas (Think outside of the box).

Responsible for the production of various documents including 3D renderings, presentations and catalogs for materials for the sales department.

Disseminated visual and technical information relevant to the preparation of patent documents (tax credits).

Performed concepts and designed toys for preschool and 5 years + children while maintaining, solving and validating
Provided verification and validation for feasibility of concepts from the "Advance Design" division, both technically and economically.

Directed processes that have enhanced the original concept and lowered production costs (new molding process optimization and simplification of mechanical assemblies and functionality)

Oversaw the production of prototypes, monitoring technical drawings for injection molds and quality control of "first shots" ensuring compliance with the initial requirements.


CorelDraw software implemented to enhance the study criteria and concept presentations and served as inter-linkages head of the software optimization and colleagues training

Contributed to the development of a more collaborative working environment in different services by facilitating departments inter-linkages
