As a mechanical engineer, my areas of interest are closely related to by teaching duties in the MET department. I specializes in design of mechanical components and systems, dynamic analysis, manual and CNC machining, robotics, and energy systems. I am an avid power sports fan; if it has a motor and goes fast then I’m probably interested, and when it breaks I can usually fix it or build a better one.

PhD, Mechanical Engineering, UVic

My educational path has taken me through a variety of engineering disciplines. Initially, I became a technologist through a college/apprenticeship program, to then attend the University of Applied Science in Zurich, Switzerland completing a degree in Electrical Engineering. Moving to Canada, I continued my academic journey receiving a Master’s and Ph.D. degree at the University of British Columbia in the field of materials science. My research was in collaboration with industrial partners, applying the characterization of material properties of thin-films of carbon to mechanical applications.

I’m passionate about sparking my students’ interest in engineering principles and providing an interdisciplinary perspective on engineering technology.
I’m currently teaching courses in Material Science, Drafting/Graphics, Hydraulics, and Technology/Operations Management.
