Founder and Chief Engineer at Hard Stuff - a company on a mission to fix the massive global and societal problems out there through hardware innovations. We make prototypes for startups, and help entrepreneurs build companies that matter!Check in with us at hard-stuff.com to tell us what problem you want to solve!

Sparkmate builds forward-thinking products and companies to solve tomorrow's challenges with you.As a Product Engineer, I am involved in the entire young-product journey, from understanding the problem at a root-level and helping clients invent solutions, all the way up to testing the final mass-manufacturable product ready for industrialization.My engineering speciality is Firmware Development and Electronics Design, but I'm never too far away from a 3D printer, a hammer and saw, or even web development to help explain and sell a client's idea.If we can't build it, it probably can't be built (screws may be loose).

Energy Generation is a fantastic pan-African organisation that trains and incubates young Africans into Entrepreneurs to address their generations most pressing challenges in energy, agriculture, and health. Our Entrepreneurs identify, develop, and spread "made in Africa" solutions that will go on to define a continent in our generation.As a teacher/lecturer in Entrepreneurship and Product Development, I guided students through the Design Thinking Process and developing their projects in to aspiring startups,As a technical support team member I helped develop EG's Online Course so that we can provide access to education to considerably more junior entrepreneurs that otherwise can not attend the courses on our campus,And as a startup growth adviser directly to Energy Generation, I helped not only their incubated startups but also EG as a company grow and deliver on their ambitious vision.

The Engineering Company is fundamentally unlocking superpowers for Engineers. Flow is the World's first collaborative modelling platform, and with it Engineering teams can design and develop orders of magnitude more complex and more optimised systems. With Flow, the technologies of the future can finally become a reality.My key involvements with The Engineering Company were:► to develop and iterate prototypes with customers, acting as both a Software Developer and Mechanical Design Engineer,► to develop early iterations of the MVP and eventual launched product, Flow, and to iterate on both internal and external feedback following Software Development best practices.► to develop content and media such as tutorials, documentation, Wikis, and other resources to deploy early iterations of Flow to a growing and hungry Alpha community. This involved building workflows that:. ► simulated robots as you designed them to evaluate operating conditions. ► electromechanical and acoustic integration into one design workflow for smart home devices. ► self-designing strut chassis according to FEA requirements, tailored to University students for Formula E designs.

The Sony Innovation Fund invests in next-generation technologies that offer strategic value to Sony's growing interests.My primary role was to bring new technologies and businesses to Sony's wider ecosystem offering strategic partnerships, venture capital investments, and technical expertise.The primary focus was to understand - on both a fundamental and holistic level - the core technologies, so as to best integrate these concepts with Sony's future where appropriate, and where inappropriate, to invest all the same.

Bath Zero has raced electric superbikes at such prestigious events as the IoM TT and MotoE series since 2014. This is a student lead project at the University of Bath that races against the likes of other universities as well as Mugen Shinden, Team Mirai, and Victory Racing.I held the role of Electrical Systems Design Lead, with my contributions including:- Development of a custom design and built Battery Management System, including PCB design and manufacture, C programming, and systems testing- CAD production and FEA testing of sub-frame capable of carrying 40+kg of Li-Ion batteries on the bike frame- Auxiliary Electrical Subsystems design, supply, and wiring- Logistics Support

Conducting experiments looking at the influence of Ionisation on Atmosphere's Absorption spectrum using narrow-band Infrared Absorption Radiometers.Experiments were designed, built (including Labview and Matlab programs to support), tested and reviewed. These findings will go on to support the team's further research.
