What I'm looking for

I seek R&D or product development roles where I can apply biomechanics expertise, lead cross-functional projects, and drive innovation within collaborative, quality-focused teams.

I am a PhD-trained biomechanical engineer with five years of R&D experience spanning academic research and industry, focused on translating technical insights into consumer product innovation.

I have led projects investigating implant material–performance relationships, authored first-author publications, developed patient-specific multi-scale collagen fiber models, and coordinated testing across clinical, academic, and engineering teams.

My technical toolkit includes FEA, image-based analysis, MATLAB, Abaqus and experimental design, and I have experience with standards, ISO 14001 audits, and quality processes that support product development and regulatory readiness.

I am curious, collaborative and driven to apply scientific rigor to product development, with experience in project coordination, cross-disciplinary communication, and presenting findings internationally.
