Profile
With Eleven Years of controls systems engineering, I have learnt my trade from the bottom up
and have a strong understanding of both the products and the techniques required to produce
them. I take a key role in product development and have broadened my experience to new
technologies whenever the opportunity arises. As a lead engineer I have experienced client
facing roles as well as training and mentoring those with less experience. I actively encourage
others to develop their skills and have made efforts to tune my own to be more cost effective.
