Hello! I’m Daniel Baughman, a team manager specializing in sloped glazing. Experienced with all stages of the design process for skylights — from the initial design to the final fabrication drawings — my true skill lies in the ability to solve problems and brainstorm ideas to make each project successful. Well-versed in numerous software packages (as described below) I excel at finding unique ways to get the most out of available resources and devising new and creative ways to achieve the desired outcome.

Software experience
CAD and Drafting
AutoCAD + AutoLISP
- 20+ years of drafting experience with AutoCAD, starting with version 2000i
- Assisted in the development of CAD standards within our organization to achieve a more homogenous product
- Developed multiple routines to streamline time-consuming tasks, reduce human error and interact with other programs
- Developed tools to extract data from AutoCAD tables. Data is then used downstream in SharePoint lists that feed into a custom app built on the MS Power Platform
Spreadsheets
Excel + Google Sheets
- 20+ years of experience with Excel using it regularly and 7+ years of using Google Sheets sporadically
- Developed a custom spreadsheet to keep track of my team's schedules. Input data can be visualized per individual team member, as team availability, or on a monthly calendar with deadlines plotted out on their respective due dates
- Developed a spreadsheet to calculate bend allowance / bend deductions for sheet metal, custom-matched to our brake press parameters. The spreadsheet outputs the finished girth, gives location of all bend lines and even has the ability to create geometry in AutoCAD that replicates the inputted values
CNC programming
EluCAD + Enroute
- 15+ years of experience using EluCAD to program complex operations such as compound miters and free-defined milling on a SBZ151 machine
- Developed multiple custom macros to reduce programing time
- Learned how to make best use of conditional programming, trigonometric functions, built-in variables and advanced formulas to improve our processes.
- 2+ years of experience using Enroute to program a MultiCAM CNC router
Web Development
HTML + CSS + JavaScript
- Achieved a basic understanding of the "building blocks" of the web and how they work together
- Built entire pages from scratch to assist in learning the syntax of all three languages and how to troubleshoot problems
- Have used templates as a starting point to create entire websites, customizing the styling & content to suit the customer's vision
Web-based collaboration / apps
SharePoint + Power Platform
- Developed a custom tablet app entirely from scratch using SharePoint and the Microsoft Power Platform. The app reads SharePoint lists to create tables that allow users to track progress, make comments on specific parts and view all project documents
- Developed interactive Power BI presentation which includes both desktop and mobile layouts.
- Proficient with MS Teams, including some of the more advanced features
Programming / Coding
Multiple Languages
- Have studied C++, Java, JavaScript, Visual Basic, Python and more
- As coding is not my primary field, I have not been able to dedicate the time required to become proficient with any one specific language. I do, however, understand the core concepts of O.O.P and am able to use this knowledge to achieve the desired results -- given enough time... and visits to stackoverflow.com.

Piano
I started piano lessons at a young age, and my primary focus was classical music. Though the busyness of adult life has kept me from practicing much, I still enjoy playing from time to time.

Q & A Section
What sets you apart from other candidates?
Curiosity, tenacity and the unwillingness to take “no” for an answer until I’m confident that I’ve exhausted all options available to me.Why does your education stop at Associates Degree?
Circumstances were such that when I was presented an opportunity to start a career, I took it — at the expense of my educational goals. I am, however, proud of what I’ve learned on my own. I have a very curious mind, I am a quick study and possess a great deal of self-motivation — a combination that has helped me succeed at most of my undertakings.Favorite Quote?
