About Me
Diver. Instructor. CAD Designer.
A Diver Since 1995
I took my first breath underwater in 1995 and never looked back. What started as a passion quickly became a way of life — and eventually, a career. I'm an SSI Advanced Open Water Scuba Diving Instructor based near Daytona Beach, FL, where I've been teaching and guiding divers since 2021 at a local dive shop.
Spending that much time in the water — and around gear — gives you a sharp eye for what works and what doesn't. You start to notice the small things: a hose that routes awkwardly, a bracket that doesn't quite fit, a component the manufacturer never thought to make. That's where I come in.
Engineering Meets the Ocean
Before full-time diving instruction, I worked in the R&D Engineering Department at an industrial pump manufacturer. That experience gave me a rigorous foundation in design, tolerancing, and production-ready documentation — the kind of discipline that separates parts that actually work from parts that just look good on screen.
I'm CSWA certified in SolidWorks and GD&T proficient. Every model I produce is designed with real-world manufacturing and fitment in mind, not just aesthetics.
Why Krytan's MME?
It started simply: local divers and fellow instructors needed custom parts that didn't exist off the shelf. A mounting bracket here, a replacement cover there. I designed them, printed them, tested them underwater, and refined them. Word spread.
Krytan's Model Metrics and Estimation, LLC was born out of that community — the idea that precision CAD work, done by someone who actually uses the gear, produces better results. Whether you're a diver, a manufacturer, or a product designer, you'll get parts designed by someone who has trusted their own work at depth.
