Drew Janszen

Hi, I’m Drew Janszen — an Industrial Designer with a BFA from Purdue University and a background in both industrial and aerospace design. I specialize in creating thoughtful, user-centered solutions that blend functionality, innovation, and aesthetics.

Currently, I work as an Aerospace Design Engineer at Belcan, where I engineer complex sheet metal and CNC components using Siemens NX and Teamcenter. My role includes precision CAD assembly work, electrical harness routing, and GD&T-compliant technical drawing creation — giving me a deep appreciation for high-stakes engineering environments.

As President of the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA) at Purdue, I led large-scale student collaborations with major brands like Sonos and Cotopaxi, managing diverse teams and delivering professional-grade results. These experiences sharpened my leadership and organizational skills and deepened my understanding of cross-functional design work.

I’m skilled in tools like SolidWorks, Rhino, Siemens NX, KeyShot, Figma, and Adobe Creative Suite, and I have 4+ years of hands-on prototyping experience. I combine technical expertise with strong soft skills — collaboration, innovation, and emotional intelligence — to deliver thoughtful, impactful designs.
