01 — ABOUT
I like understanding how things work — then finding a better way to build them.
My interests sit between electrical hardware, modelling, control and computation.
My journey began with electrical and electronics engineering, where I developed a strong foundation in circuits, power systems, power electronics, machines, control and semiconductor devices.
Since then, my work has moved across very different scales — from semiconductor and analog IC design to power converters, microgrids, photovoltaic systems and experimental electronic circuits.
Today, I am particularly interested in electric mobility and the systems that make electrification possible: propulsion, power conversion, electrical machines, control and simulation.

Understand the system.
Build the system.
Question the system.
Build the system.
Question the system.
I am interested not only in making systems work, but in understanding the principles behind them — and using that understanding to make better engineering decisions.
