About Me

I am a student at Imperial College London, studying MEng Design Engineering.

 

Whilst my course allows me to explore all areas of engineering and design, I’m particularly interested in innovation, sustainability, and human-centred design. I’m passionate about developing solutions that create a positive impact on society and the environment.

 

Take a look at some of my recent projects below...

My Skills:

Industrial Design - Monitoring Beehives

March 2025

Design and prototyping of an electro-mechanical hand-operated device to help tackle key challenges faced by beekeepers such as monitoring colony health, protection against predators and responding to environmental changes.

Vehicle Design Aerodynamics

February 2025

Design of a vehicle though sketch iterations and CAD modelling, followed by analysis of its aerodynamic performance using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD).

Sustainable Design of Aircraft Seating

November 2024

Creation of a sustainable business class aircraft seat design that improves durability, reduces waste, and enhances fuel efficiency through lightweight materials and modular components. Use of eco-audit and MCI software to assess the environmental impact and circularity the design.

Human Centred Design - Food Education for Families

June 2024

Taste Together - an interactive meal subscription and app designed to bring families closer while promoting cultural education through shared dining experiences.

Introductory Project - Mitigating Flooding

November 2023

Research and design of a home protection flood barrier, powered using a wind turbine, to automatically protect evacuated homes during major floods.
