About Me

THE WRENCH

Driven by Passion, Fueled by Innovation

Engineering is not just what I do, it is how I think. Whether I am refining a suspension system, working through a complex mechanical problem, or solving an everyday one, I enjoy finding the answer that makes a design faster, lighter, more efficient, and more reliable.

I recently completed an MSc in Motorsport Engineering at Oxford Brookes University, after two years designing automotive mechanisms at Multimatic and five co-op placements during my Mechatronics Engineering degree at the University of Waterloo. Across Formula Student with Oxford Brookes Racing and the University of Waterloo Formula Motorsports, I have designed suspension components, analyzed telemetry, and machined and assembled parts by hand, turning CAD into real components and validating them on track.

I do not limit myself to what I already know. When something has not been done before, I work out how, whether that means teaching myself a new piece of software or gathering what the people around me already know, and then I share it so others can use it too. At Multimatic, that meant setting up the mechanisms team's first Excel to CATIA V5 parametric templates for standard components and writing a guide for the rest of the team. In my dissertation, the same idea grew into a full Excel to Siemens NX pipeline that takes a suspension design change to FEA-ready CAD in under 30 minutes.

I believe the way a part looks says a lot about how it was engineered. Even on components no one will ever see, I aim for a clean, considered finish, because it shows that real thought went into both the design and the manufacturing.

I approach every challenge with both analytical and empirical methods, and I am always eager to take on engineering and manufacturing problems that push automotive and motorsport performance forward. Let's connect and build something exciting!

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WRENCH

Beyond engineering, I am driven to chase new challenges, experiences, and perspectives that shape who I am, both on and off the track. Whether it is sports, diving into technical research, or pursuing personal projects, my passion for learning and exploration extends far beyond the workshop and design studio. Hard work and determination fuel everything I do, and I thrive on collaborating with like-minded people who share the same relentless pursuit of progress.

Hobbies & Interests

Alongside my passion for motorsport, whether open-wheel formula racing, endurance racing, karting, wrenching in the pits, or racing in simulators, I have explored a wide range of hobbies that have shaped who I am. Each of these pursuits continues to provide valuable skills and perspectives that I carry into both my personal and professional life.

From hands-on work like manual and CNC machining and additive manufacturing, to creative outlets such as diecast model collecting, aerial drones, and computer building, I am always seeking opportunities to expand my skill set and add to my experiences. Traveling, competitive sports, and even video games further my curiosity, creativity, and drive to continuously challenge myself and learn something new.

Sports & Outdoors

Since a young age, I have been active in a wide variety of sports ranging from football (soccer) and skiing to volleyball and rock climbing or bouldering. I have also enjoyed my time in the outdoors, admiring the scenery of the Rocky Mountains and other landscapes around the world. Naturally athletic and curious, I thrive on trying new sports and learning the unique strategies, techniques, and rules that each one demands.

Combining an analytical mindset with dedicated practice, I have consistently been able to pick up new activities or skill sets quickly, in my daily life or in engineering, even when little of my previous experiences applied. With sports, I learn by observing fellow beginners and skilled athletes, adopting effective techniques, and refining them through trial and error. These experiences have given me not only physical skills, but also lessons in discipline, adaptability, and resilience, qualities I apply every day in engineering and beyond.

Over the years, I have taken part in a wide range of sports and outdoor activities, including volleyball, ultimate frisbee, track and field, rock climbing and bouldering, mountain biking, scuba diving, skiing (including backcountry telemark with avalanche training), and hiking.

Traveling

I have been fortunate to have traveled to more than 40 countries across six continents, including three years living in Lagos, Nigeria. Along the way, I have experienced diverse cultures, built lasting connections, and gained valuable perspectives that shape how I approach both life and engineering. Traveling has also taught me adaptability, problem-solving in unfamiliar environments, and the value of collaboration across different backgrounds, all skills I carry into my professional life.

Some of my most memorable adventures include New Year's in Sydney, Australia; cruising and swimming in the Amazon River; volunteering at a sea turtle hatchery and spending a week with a Bribri community in Costa Rica; exploring Dubai and the surrounding desert; and spending time at an elephant sanctuary in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
