Summary
I’m a motivated Mechanical & Automation Engineering graduate now pursuing an MSc in Advanced Manufacturing at TUC, with hands-on experience in CAD (CATIA, Fusion 360), prototyping, technical documentation and simulation (Ansys Fluent, CFD). I enjoy solving practical and research problems across renewable energy, e-mobility and vehicle technology, and I’m flexible, quick to learn, and open to any technical challenge—whether it’s design, simulation, lab work or contributing to research and publications.
