About
I’m a Mechanical Design Engineer based in Edinburgh, with hands-on experience in CAD, FEA, GD&T, prototyping, and manufacturing processes. I excel at turning concepts into prototypes and solving practical engineering challenges in fast-paced environments while keeping manufacturability in focus.
I completed an MSc in Robotics (Distinction) from Heriot-Watt University and hold a BEng in Mechanical Engineering from Landmark University. I’m passionate about delivering well-engineered, manufacturable solutions and continuously expanding my skills in design, analysis, and fabrication.
