About

I am an automotive engineer working on electric vehicles, with an MSc in Automotive Engineering for Electric Vehicles from the University of Bedfordshire and a first-class BEng in Electrical and Electronics Engineering specialising in electric vehicles. My background sits across mechanical design, vehicle dynamics and simulation-driven analysis — CAD, FEA and CFD. My dissertation was an aerodynamic study of a multi-element Formula Student front wing, where iterative optimisation in ANSYS Fluent produced roughly a 45% reduction in aerodynamic drag alongside improved aerodynamic efficiency. Before the MSc I spent two months as a CAE engineering intern in a product development research group, working on battery thermal management systems using nanofluids for electric vehicles — analysing coolant and heat transfer behaviour across a pack, and presenting findings that tied the analysis back to decisions a pack designer would actually face. Alongside the MSc I was on chassis for Formula Student Bedfordshire Racing, in a 24-member team. That work took chassis components from concept design in SOLIDWORKS through to workshop manufacture — cutting, welding, fabrication and assembly — against stiffness, packaging and cost targets on a fixed project deadline. The most useful thing I took from it was not the CAD. It was building the parts I had drawn, discovering which of my drawings were optimistic, and learning to check a component against its drawing before it goes anywhere near an assembly rather than after. I am looking for a graduate engineering role, with particular interest in simulation-led design, validation and quality assurance.
