About
I'm Alex — a Senior Mechanical Designer at Durham Pattern & Model with 13 years of hands-on experience in GD&T, 3D modelling, and precision manufacturing coordination. I serve as the technical backbone of the CAD department, working daily across CNC, CMM, CAM, and quality control teams to move designs from concept to compliant, buildable outcome.
In 2022 I founded Drozwik Drones, an aerial photography and videography business where the same discipline I bring to engineering applies directly to every project — real estate, commercial, and creative clients across Ontario.
A broad trades background in toolmaking, TIG welding, CNC setup, and electrical means I understand how things are built, not just drawn.
Experience
Technical backbone of the CAD department, spanning the full design lifecycle — from interpreting complex GD&T callouts and building parametric 3D solid models, to authoring the SOPs and standards that keep the department running consistently. Interfaces directly with customers, supports quoting management, and ensures every drawing package, inspection report, and manufacturing document meets exacting standards.
Precision toolmaking and fabrication spanning CNC manufacturing, welding, and hands-on build processes. The foundation of real-world manufacturing knowledge that shapes every design decision.
Licensed aerial photography and videography serving real estate, commercial, and creative clients across Ontario. Manages all operations — client acquisition, flight, post-production, and multi-platform content distribution.
