I apply engineering simulation and data analysis to low-carbon energy systems.
What I'm looking for
I've built a foundation in engineering simulation and data-driven design, and I'm preparing to begin an MSc in Sustainable Energy with Industrial Placement at the University of Surrey.
At Truston Consult, I used ANSYS FLUENT and AutoCAD to optimise system designs, improving design efficiency by 15%. I also analysed infrastructure data in MATLAB, identified five operational inefficiencies, and built Tableau KPI and compliance dashboards.
During my CAMO Engineering Internship at Air Peace Airline, I supported airworthiness and asset-performance monitoring across avionics, airframe, maintenance planning, reliability, and powerplant teams. This strengthened my understanding of lifecycle management, asset integrity, compliance, and risk management for complex infrastructure.
My academic projects combine practical modelling, machine learning, and leadership: I built a MATLAB K-NN handwriting recognition system with 92.8% accuracy, led 12 engineers on a mega-project management report, and won first place in a fighting robot competition. I'm motivated by renewable technologies, energy systems, and the low-carbon transition.
