Hi, I am Arsenii

Arsenii Shirokov

Mechanical Engineering Undergraduate Student at Missouri University of Science and Technology.

I am a Mechanical Engineering student at Missouri University of Science & Technology maintaining a high 3.96 GPA, with a passion for CAD modeling, mechanical prototyping, and robotic design.

With over 4 years of experience as Chief CAD Engineer in FIRST Robotics Competitions, I specialize in translating complex competition requirements into manufacturing-ready 3D assemblies using Onshape and Autodesk Inventor. Beyond engineering and 3D printing, I bring a strong creative perspective through traditional drawing, architectural sketches, and fine art.
