Mechanical Engineering Lecturer, Chartered Engineer (CEng MIMechE), and former Oil & Gas Mechanical Engineer with over 15 years of combined industry and academic experience.
My career combines practical engineering experience with higher education. Prior to academia, I worked in the oil and gas industry, supporting rotating equipment, maintenance, energy systems, and fluid-related operations. These experiences continue to influence my teaching and research by connecting engineering fundamentals to real-world applications.
Currently, I teach System Dynamics, Dynamics, Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer, and Capstone Design at the University of Wisconsin–Stout. I integrate simulation tools, hands-on learning, and project-based instruction to help students develop strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
My research interests include dynamic systems, vibration suppression, mechanism design, control systems, artificial intelligence applications in engineering, and engineering education. I am particularly interested in using simulation, virtual laboratories, and emerging technologies to enhance engineering learning and practice.
