I'm offering
I am an innovative and adaptable chartered engineer. I have 8 years experience within the valve industry covering oil and gas, power and nuclear requirements. I enjoy working on product development and taking conceptual designs through to product launch.
I specialise in product development and adaptation of products to emerging technologies. My recent projects include design and build of a smart control valve to measure erosion rate through 3D CAD analysis via CFD and FEA with a physical validating test loop.
I have a passion for 3D modelling and detailed drafting from large scale assemblies to intricate singular components. I have a wealth of experience in CFD and a keen interest in image rendering.
