ABOUT ME

Innovative Problem Solver

Always thinking of new ideas to make improvements to modern engineering systems. I have been praised on my ability to think outside the box and find ways for companies to increase productivity and revenue.

EXPERIENCE

Shenzhen Open Innovation Lab

Jun 2019 – Aug 2019 | Marketing Specialist, Education Mentor & Project

Designed and engineered products to be used in countries of low economic growth. Helping to achieve the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This lead to local villages having access to cleaner water and the technology to monitor and protect bees.

Trained and presented to classes of pupils with various ages and limited English language. Using my brief knowledge of Spanish, French and Mandarin to help. Classes were able to code and create the projects we had formerly made.

Represented the company at the worlds leading start-up event - SLUSH, speaking to CEOs and changemakers about projects we were working on. This gained the company connections to a huge global network of businesses.

Edited and created an entrepreneurship video teaching start-ups about purchasing and selling white-label products.

Adapted to the new culture and working environment quickly whilst understanding the importance of China in the global economy.

University of Bristol

Sep 2018 – Jun 2021 | Aerospace Engineering MEng

Analysed data collected from wind tunnels and produced visual aids from the results. Presented findings to a group of peers that used my results to form the basis of a report.

Designed, coded and created a full scale aircraft wing over the course of 6 months. Wing operation had adjustable flap and Bluetooth connectivity. Pressure gradients and lift coefficients were then calculated and plotted.

Member of the Space Exploration Society, creating SATCOMs and space rover parts. Actively taking part in events and socials.

Used GMAT to compute a rocket projection to orbit a specified planet.

Enrolled onto multiple open courses, learning about sustainability and tackling problems that impact our future.

PROJECTS

Bees and Ions

Since Oct 2019 | COMSOL Research

I am currently working on a project which is the computational modelling of an Ion detection system. I am looking at the flow through the system, how it can be improved and provide a much more advanced computer model which can be used for further research. I am also looking at the influence of insects, specifically bees and how they interact with electromagnetic systems. Research in this is fairly new so it has been really exciting to research further into this. COMSOL Multiphysics will be my primary software of use and will provide me excellent modelling skills.

Online Portfolio

Since Feb 2019 | HTML CSS JavaScript

I've been working on this online portfolio in my spare time. Having had no prior skills in HTML or CSS this has given me a huge skill set which I have very much enjoyed learning. Touching with JavaScript too this has helped me in my current studies and given me access to other opportunities which weren't open to me before.

SKILLS

MATLAB

Intermediate Level

I work with MATLAB throughout my study at university. Some uses are:

Computing shear centres, sectional stresses & strains and torsional stiffness of aircraft sections, modelling frequency response functions (FRFs) and calculating damped natural frequencies & steady state responses of systems, and extracting and analysing data from flight simulators.

COMSOL

Intermediate Level

I work with electromagnetic and fluid flow modelling for my project. I produce simulations to aid my research and to help interpret difficult systems. The skills gained from this have been very valuable.
