Detail design and precision assembly work as a contractor for local engineering companies on automotive projects. Design work using Catia V5.

Joined Ilmor in 2000 as an F1 Engine Builder. Studied part-time at Northampton University, whilst working full time, and gained a BSc Hons (2:1). The Company changed its name to Mercedes-Ilmor, and after being trained in Catia V5, I started to become involved in more engineering projects, such as designing and project managing new dyno installations, and detail design of engine components. With a change of ownership and the company reverting back to the name Ilmor, I was offered the chance to work on the MotoGP project as a Track Support Technician.
