This broad-based degree developed application of academic learnings and skills to real, practical engineering problems. In July 2019 I received a Master of Engineering (MEng) degree in Mechanical Engineering. The degree included a fourth-year dissertation on the design of a micro-displacement based strain sensor for structural health monitoring of offshore structures and a fifth-year group dissertation on the ballistic resilience of composites using nano-materials.

Internship working in a multi-discipline environment involving oil and gas industry certification, technical design and product testing performed in the workshop. • Investigated and implemented testing standards to comply with API 598 and API 6D.• Held meetings with consultants to obtain critical information that drove product design.• Developed safe product testing procedures and composed reports detailing the steps of the test. Executed demonstrations of the tests to a small team of engineers. • Collaborated with a senior design engineer to produce a valve that complied with new industry standards.• Completed testing in project downtime e.g. high/low pressure hydrostatic leak, cyclic, tempering.

Oxford, United Kingdom

Internship developing technical experience through design and construction of various pieces of equipment in the workshop in compliance with health and safety standards. • Direct responsibility for the design and build of a brand-new hydrostatic-pressure test rig, in accordance with HSE regulations, for safety testing of pressure regulating valves.• Created a cyclic tester box from scratch using parts I designed in Solidworks and other ordered electronic components.• Constructed scaled down flow-test rigs to replicate both water and gas flow applications.• Performed dimensional stability tests on innovative Oxford Flow products to determine a supplier for parts.
