Arduous and fulfilling tasks such as clearing brush post storms gave me a great sense of purpose and engagement with both my team and the wider community. An emphasis on teamwork and safety resonated with my personal values.https://www.ffm.vic.gov.au/who-we-are/firefighting-and-employment Show less

As part of a small team we tore down, catalogued, 3d scanned, reverse engineered and subsequently designed a dual steer conversion for an ISUZU and HINO street sweeper. Using Solidworks we developed the program from concept to production with associated drawings, installation and assembly instructions. We designed a new vacuum moulded centre console, cut n' shut dashboard, bracketry for ancillary, wiring, structural, 3D printed HVAC ducting and assembly, test rigs, assembly and… Show more As part of a small team we tore down, catalogued, 3d scanned, reverse engineered and subsequently designed a dual steer conversion for an ISUZU and HINO street sweeper.

Detailed design of pre-production/ prototype vehicle components- Interior trim-BIW-Illumination

In partnership with a senior design professor developed the Larry Perkins Coates 400 V8 Supercars trophy; I was tasked with the overseeing and manufacture of the carbon fiber component that provides the backbone of the trophy. A high class aesthetic appeal was required along with a shape that was both visually and ergonomically satisfying.

Employed to assist in the production of composite parts for the 2018 V8 Supercar season. Duties include:- composite repair of damaged parts-resin infusion components -mould manufacturing/ repair-press mould components-chop strand splash mould-mechanical assembly and bonding
