PhD is not only a degree, it is a mindset and a set of tools fundamental to industry allowing one to perform in a short amount of time, navigate new topics with ease and provide high technical and managerial outcomes. Hence, I love challenges and do not shy away from them! I take on responsibilities and deliver, going the extra mile if needed. Enthusiastic, curious and rigorous – 8+ years’ experience in composites, modelling/FEA, testing, mechanical/materials engineering, data science & project management. Lived/worked in: France, Iceland, Ireland, Northern Ireland/UK and Canada.
