Point of Sales design and custom paint masking

While working for modernistic I have worked on various projects, from designing hanging advertisements for Shopko, creating intricate paint masks for GM's engine covers, prototyping point of sale stands for Fastenal, and engineering the bends and folds required to manufacture all sorts of displays. I was the sole engineer working on 3D design and effectively replaced my own position by teaching my coworkers how to engineer and design in Solidworks.
My work was so well received that they continue to use my renderings on their website 4 years later.
