About

I am a self-determined, enthusiastic, imaginative engineer. Throughout a 13-month placement at Bosch Thermotechnik I refined my practical skillset, gaining confidence in my ability to apply inventive solutions to problems. Whilst I do relish opportunities for team collaboration, I thrive when given independence and responsibility whilst working on my own projects, going above and beyond to reach the best results.

In my Masters I specialised in Thermodynamics and Fluid Dynamics, as well as undertaking business management modules to broaden my horizon. Upon moving to Germany I hope to extend my experience in consumer products.
