What I'm looking for

I seek a challenging role in a dynamic environment that fosters innovation and professional growth.

I am a dedicated mechanical engineer with a PhD in Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering from RMIT University. With over 14 years of experience, I have honed my skills in mechanical design, Finite Element Analysis (FEA), and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). My work has included innovative projects such as developing a novel graphene reinforced metal composite material and optimizing mechanical performance through advanced simulation techniques.

Throughout my career, I have successfully designed and tested various mechanical structures, including rocket sleds and dental components, ensuring compliance with ISO 13485 standards. My role at Trelleborg Marine Systems involved leading design projects and collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality engineering solutions. I am passionate about leveraging my expertise to contribute to cutting-edge engineering projects and drive innovation in the field.
