👋 hi, i'm abraham — friends call me abri.

i build things: hardware, software, ideas. whatever the problem calls for.

trained as an industrial engineer / mechanical designer, spent years designing tooling and fixtures where a bad tolerance costs thousands.

these days i split my time between freelance mechanical design and shipping side projects, something i used to only dream about until I actually started doing it.

i take hardware end to end — CAD, enclosure, electronics, firmware and the site that sells it. if you have a part, a product or an enclosure that needs designing, that's the work i do for clients.

i care about building things that are good for people and easy on the planet. not as a tagline — just as a filter for what's worth making.

the whole process, out loud. taking hardware from an idea to something people can buy — the CAD, the failed prints, the calibration, the parts that break. mistakes included, because those are the useful part.

I read more than I ship. What's on the desk and what's next — happy to swap recommendations.
