Education
Self Taught
2D drafting and 3D modeling
I taught myself to use CAD programs to get my first job on a program called Medusa which was strictly 2D. As the company grew and upgraded to AutoCAD and Pro-E I was given some introductory classes to help me get started. From there I worked with several programs over the years but basically I am self taught. I wish I had some of the proper schooling in this field as I know many of these programs are capable of great things, but I do know enough to create parts, assemblies and drawings. Some people just have an ability for CAD and I think I am one of them so with more training I think I would enjoy it more and be able to do more things and be better at them.
