I set strategy and provide technical leadership for the Energy business unit, with particular focus on industrialising offshore wind, hydrogen distribution technology and developing a circular economy for composite materials. I have built a profile within the UK wind industry as a technical leader with clear focus on building commercially viable businesses.

Bristol, United Kingdom

I led the technical execution of a £37M capital acquisition and engineering development program that transformed the NCC into one of (if not the) best equipped composites R&D facilities in the world. I formed and led a team that peaked at 80 staff to specify, procure and commission 10 cutting-edge pieces of manufacturing equipment including modification.

Bristol, United Kingdom

I led research in Automated Fibre Placement to expand industrial use of AFP and realise the benefits to factory productivity, component performance and manufacturing quality AFP can deliver.The AFP team developed robust process understanding to guide manufacturing development for NCC customers across common material systems. We extended the UK capability.

Bristol, United Kingdom

Working within the manufacturing process simulation team I helped NCC customers improve quality and reduce cost and risk in implementing advanced manufacturing processes. I specialised in development, validation and application of novel simulation tools that describe composite manufacturing processes for:Automated Fibre PlacementAutoclave.

Bristol, United Kingdom

I lead a new and energetic working group whose mission is:“to promote the development and use of virtual manufacturing tools within the product design cycle to improve outcomes in industrial manufacturing processes" It is my pleasure to play my part is this group of experts and help form a strong virtual manufacturing community to deliver this mission.

I ran a successful coaching business, specialising in performance cycling. Over 13 years I refined my coaching, mentoring and knowledge transfer skills to support my athletes in implementing effective and time-efficient training that enriched their busy lives. I understand the balance between what is proven to be most effective and the highly personal.

I write feature articles that highlight and explain, in simple and exciting language, the cutting edge technologies used to give professional athletes the winning edge. I mix clearly explained facts with the compelling stories of the riders, scientists and creators behind the innovations to capture some of my enthusiasm for sports technology in writingI.

Banbury, UK

I researched multifunctional composite materials and developed the innovative components that they enable across aerospace actuation and primary structure.I conceived, developed and IP-protected novel solutions to product-specific challenges spanning a range of technologies with key interests in magnetic composites, wear resistant composites and.
