Mechanical Engineering Portfolio

Jerrick Manswell

Welcome to my engineering portfolio! I am a recent graduate of Olivet Nazarene University, where i earned a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering.

My interests lie in mechanical design, power transmission systems, and manufacturing processes, with a strong focus on automotive and aerospace applications. I am passionate about hands-on engineering, including machining, fabrication, and testing mechanical systems. I enjoy bridging the gap between digital design and physical implementation by taking components from CAD models to manufactured and tested assemblies.

I have gained valuable engineering experience through my participation in the 2024–2025 Baja SAE season, where I designed, analyzed, and manufactured drivetrain components, including a custom transfer case, wheel hubs, and chassis structures. These projects allowed me to apply mechanical design principles, perform stress analyses, and ensure manufacturability while solving real-world engineering challenges.

Beyond Baja SAE, I have further developed my skills through small-engine rebuilding and mechanical troubleshooting. These experiences have strengthened my technical problem-solving abilities and practical engineering knowledge. This portfolio highlights my design, analysis, and manufacturing work, showcasing my ability to approach engineering problems with both technical precision and creativity.
