About Me
I'm a Research Associate (postdoc) at Imperial College London, where I am based in the Simulation and Modelling in Medicine and Surgety group. I am also a co-founder and lead engineer at Human Robotix Ltd. My main research interest is the design of multimodal haptic inferfaces for simulation and physical information presentation. I also work extensively in 3D printing/digital manufacturing and other areas of mechatronics.

Queen Mary University of London
PhD in Haptics and Mechatronics
Telerobotics
The second phase of my PhD research will apply my developments in soft haptics to the problem of real-time control of mobile robots operating in extreme environments.
Mechatronics and Rapid Prototyping
I am extremely interested in small-scale manufacturing engineering and speeding up the path from engineering innovation to commercialisation and/or real world use. I have worked extensively in the field of medical 3D printing, using new approaches to crowd manufacturing to supply PPE to healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Read more...
I also operate a small robotics start-up out of my garage, building robots for research and clinical use. Read more...
