Leonardo Ruiz Garcia
HELLO!
Welcome to my portfolio. I am passionate about helping others in any way I can. Throughout my education, I've found myself joining organizations that believed in the same pillars as I do. I'm currently seeking a full-time role, ready to apply my critical and problem solving skills.
I enjoy being involved with organizations that positivity influence our community. Someday I hope to work for a company who's goals and mission aligns with mine.
​
From experimental passion projects to Internship projects, I’ve had the opportunity to follow my passion of bringing things to life. I've had the chance to intern within the medical device and manufacturing industries, applying my critical thinking and engineering background to successfully complete projects and maximizing productivity.
I thrive on creative challenges and enjoy building strong relationships along the way. Explore my work below, and contact me directly to learn more.
