What I'm looking for

I am seeking engineering roles focused on CAD/CAE, BIM, materials R&D, and thermal analysis within collaborative, sustainability-driven teams offering technical growth.

I am a Mechanical Engineer with practical experience in CAD/CAE tools, BIM engineering, and materials testing, including a master's in Design Engineering and a thesis on recycled short carbon fibers. I bring strong analytical thinking, R&D experience, and a track record in design engineering and thermal load analysis.

My professional background includes BIM engineering work on large-scale hospital and senior-care facility projects, thermal load calculations, and support for spatial design reviews, alongside hands-on simulation experience with tools like Abaqus and Ansys. I have also contributed to mobility data collection for high-speed rail studies and coordinated educational and community activities.

I value creative problem-solving, adaptability, and collaborative teamwork, and I aim to apply my expertise in recycled composite materials and engineering design to innovative projects that combine sustainability and technical rigor.
