I have been in the field of materials and structural integrity engineering for over a decade. Having started my career as a student intern and developed it via an industrially based doctoral project and post-doctoral research for a number of prestigious industrial players, I believe my experiences could be considered 'the best of both worlds'.I am currently working as Principal and Chief Engineer at Fidelis Engineering Associates; a company that my associate and I founded with the aim of providing advanced FEA solutions for leading innovators in a range of industries. Previous positions include working as a Senior Analytical Engineer at American Axle Manufacturing, where I successfully developed advanced analytical methods for the prediction of failure in axle components and assemblies, and as a Research Associate for The University of Manchester. This diverse range of positions has allowed me to flex both my academic and industrial muscles. My academic work has included writing and publishing a number of journal papers, guiding the direction of a number of future PhD projects and also generating technical reports on failure analysis and fracture mechanics for the university's industrial partners. I was also able to head up a significant knowledge transfer project, which culminated in my contribution of a number of chapters to the R6 nuclear structural integrity guidance procedure – something I am extremely proud of.I consider myself a tenacious engineer who is always prepared to 'think outside the box' to achieve results. This mind-set proved particularly valuable during my doctoral study, throughout which I was awarded for Outstanding Technical Content by the ASME Pressure Vessels and Piping Division at their 2012 international conference. I would also describe myself as a straight-forward and candid worker – I don’t like to ‘beat about the bush’ – and I am genuinely enthused by engineering as a whole.As well as a doctorate, I have a 1st Class Masters degree in Materials Science and Engineering and a Post-Graduate Diploma in Enterprise Management, both from The University of Manchester.

Principal And Chief EngineerFidelis Engineering Associates Jan 2020 - PresentGreater Detroit AreaCo-owner of Fidelis Engineering Associates. Duties range from business development to finite element project engineering:- Develop sound business strategies and plans and ensure their alignment with Fidelis objectives.- Oversee operations and business activities and ensure they are consistent with the overall strategy.- Generate leads for new business and cultivate existing customer relationships.- Carry out high-end engineering simulation consulting work in a timely and professional manner.At Fidelis, our objective is to provide fully integrated, simulation based engineering solutions by utilizing state-of-the-art tools. -
Senior Analytical EngineerAam - American Axle & Manufacturing Jan 2018 - Dec 2019Greater Detroit AreaContracted to work as part of a ten person expert Virtualization team tasked with developing advanced simulation methodologies. The multi-million dollar project was aimed at significant reduction of 'first-time-quality' (FTQ) failures of axle components and assemblies. Responsible for axle shaft ultimate torsion and fatigue, as well as aluminum tubes and housings, personal success was achieved by way of highly correlated predictions and almost complete eradication of FTQ issues. -
Project EngineerCaelynx Nov 2015 - Dec 2019Ann ArborProviding advanced FEA solutions for leading innovators in the aerospace, automotive, consumer product, high-tech, energy, and life science sectors.Personally tasked with leading large aerospace tooling projects, as well as working on a diverse array of engineering challenges. -
Consulting EngineerUniversity Of Manchester Aug 2013 - Mar 2015Greater Detroit AreaCarried out a number of consulting projects for the University of Manchester. These include development of nuclear outreach tools, guiding the direction of new PhD projects and generating technical reports for various industrial partners of the University. -
Research AssociateUniversity Of Manchester Nov 2012 - Jul 2013Indianapolis, IndianaUndertook a project aimed at collating and evaluating upper-shelf fracture toughness data for medium-high strength nuclear grade steels, with the view to guiding future research efforts in the field. The project was run in collaboration with Rolls-Royce Nuclear (UK). -
Research AssociateUniversity Of Manchester Nov 2011 - Oct 2012Manchester, United KingdomThis knowledge transfer project was aimed at translating the output of selected government funded research projects into recommended structural integrity guidance. Research outputs, specifically relating to weld residual stress effects on fracture and weld property evaluation by advanced techniques, have been identified and implemented into current UK nuclear structural integrity procedures. Work was carried out in close collaboration with Amec and with a panel of nuclear industry experts via workshops, regular meetings and presentations. -
Research EngineerSerco Oct 2007 - Sep 2011Warrington, United KingdomPosition as Research Engineer (EngD) was undertaken wholly at Serco Energy. The project undertaken was successful in improving the understanding of residual stress effects on fracture in PWR pressure vessel steel, important in the continuing advancement of structural integrity guidance procedures. Specific skills developed during this program include detailed experience in computational analysis (Finite Element), project management and experimental methodologies, whilst being situated in industry allowed part to be taken in commercial activities, as well as concentrating on the doctoral project. -
Assistant ConsultantSerco Aug 2005 - Jul 2006Warrington, United KingdomIndustrial internship, which involved working on various industrial, engineering based projects, and included the preparation of a Masters level dissertation. This provided important experience of working in an industrial setting as well as experience in both analytical and experimental structural integrity activities.
