About

Michael Russell

Design Engineer & CAD Designer — founder of Russell Consulting LLC, serving clients from Richland, Mississippi since 2006.

Professional Summary

25+ years turning ideas into manufacturable hardware

I'm an accomplished Design Engineer with more than 25 years of experience in mechanical design, CAD drafting, and manufacturing engineering. My work spans commercial cooking equipment, poultry processing machinery, power transmission systems, and multi-industry consulting.

What sets my approach apart is the combination of deep, hands-on machinist and tooling expertise with advanced CAD proficiency and ERP/MRP system knowledge. That blend lets me deliver precision designs from concept through production — drawings that don't just look right on screen, but build cleanly on the shop floor.

Through Russell Consulting LLC, I've partnered with companies across diverse industries to deliver mechanical design, drafting, BOM creation, MRP implementation, and the practical engineering support that moves a product from idea to production.

I also design and build custom websites for clients — bringing the same precision, clarity, and attention to detail that defines my engineering work to clean, responsive sites that help businesses stand out online.
