Mechanical engineering graduate with an experience in software development, particularly for numerical methods. Avid proponent of Free and Open Source Software.

I've been active in the development of FreeCAD, mostly doing bug-fixes and performance & UI improvements in Part Design and FEM workbenches among others.

For the last few months, my focus has been on B-Spline related work in Sketcher. Of particular note are the knot insertion tool (currently available in 0.20) and curve splitting (currently in review as of December 2022) and joining (currently available in 0.21/1.0). I hope to be able to implement in the coming few months the much desired point-on-object and other constraint on B-Splines (at least to the extent possible without it becoming full time research).

Currently raising funds for work on the B-splines constraint project. Follow it here. (UPDATE: This project is now finished and is being merged; further extensions are also in plan).
