About me

I am a Senior Lecturer in Mechanical Engineering specialising in CFD and multiphase flow systems. My current research focuses on microfluidics for water quality monitoring and environmental sensing, in line with Horizon Europe Cluster 6 priorities on sustainable water technologies. I have led CFD modelling work with Rolls-Royce and Expleo, and led a project with BAXI Thermea on flue gas heat recovery. I am now seeking collaboration on innovative environmental solutions and cross-regional partnerships for water monitoring and sustainability.
