Here, I help clients innovate through developing new products and solutions.

Durham University
Masters of Engineering, Oct 2013 - Jun 2017
Durham, UK

Durham has been the pillar to both my knowledge and hobbies. The years I spent here were full of diverse opportunities, aspirations and goals. The multidisciplinary nature of my degree challenged me in all aspects engineering and entrepreneuring - everything from digital electronics to how to build a startup. The breadth of this course solidified my core problem solving ability regardless of discipline. My third year abroad at the National University of Singapore strengthened my ability to adapt while pushing me to expand, challenge and adjust my world views.

My experience dancing and training with Chili Con Crew and BreakiNUS showed me the power of expression. Training with both crews pushed and expanded my comfort zone while reinforcing the concept of work hard play hard.

PA Consulting Group
Summer Intern, Jun 2015 - Sept 2015
Cambridge, UK
I spent this summer learning about the world of consulting as well as designing and developing a demonstrator platform for an all-weather navigation system to be used in self driving vehicles. I was honored to work aside the brightest minds and was inspired by all the capabilities within one building. This summer showed me my place in a tech-driven world and boosted my enthusiasm and motivation to work in technology.
MyTutor
Personal Maths and Physics Tutor, Nov 2014 - Jun 2015
Durham, UK
I used my ability to easily convey complex concepts and constructs to high school maths and physics students. I was able to help several students achieve remarkable results through encouragement, calmness and patience. Being a tutor taught me the importance of being able to articulate ideas clearly - and a big part of this was understanding how to put yourself in the shoes of another.
