An Engineer
A Technologist with a Global Experience.
Meticulous Engineer with a bias for action. I bring an impact-driven mindset and enthusiasm for developing technology and integrated systems that turn innovative ideas into reality. Technically inclined, strategic, and data-driven, I combine tangible results with team collaboration to optimise design solutions that feel effortless and intuitive.
With over seven years of experience across Aerospace, Rail, Automotive, and Energy sectors, I specialise in end-to-end design and development of complex mechanical and autonomous systems. As a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer, I transform ambiguity into manufacturable design intent; bridging the gap between concept and real-world delivery.
Most engineers can create models. Very few can take them into the real world. I’ve spent my career solving that exact gap: converting rough sketches into fully validated, tested, and reliable components. I don’t just design; I deliver products.
My toolkit spans CAD and CAE expertise (SolidWorks, CATIA, Creo, AutoCAD, Ansys, Abaqus) and extends into data structures with Java and Python, giving me agility to work across digital and physical domains. I drive results through a complete New Product Development lifecycle, applying Lean Manufacturing principles and procurement processes to accelerate product launch.
I am a problem-solver who thrives in complexity, a collaborator who unites ideas and teams, and a professional committed to perseverance and continuous improvement. My work consistently integrates robotics, electro-mechanical systems, and high-reliability design for next-generation technology.
Power Generation
Imagine a cubic meter of power, scalable and cheaper than you think. It harnesses the power of hygroscopic materials. By engineering cellophane strips that expand and contract with humidity, we created a device that generates rotational power. This modular system harnesses natural evaporation to create constant power, a scalable renewable energy source that works anywhere.
Multi-Physics Engineering
Engineered a high-power electro-mechanical system to thrive under extreme conditions. This project details how advanced simulation and robust design conquered intense heat and multi-axis vibrations within a compact package, successfully meeting demanding compliance standards. Explore the cutting-edge design and validation process.

Robot Evolution
Imagine robots learning to walk like animals evolve. This project applies evolutionary algorithms in a physics environment to evolve complex robot morphologies. By simulating genetic crossover and "survival of the fittest," Through thousands of generations of evolution, they automatically discover the most effective body shapes and gaits for maximum speed.
