About Me
I don't really see engineering and design as separate things. The way something works affects how it can be made, and the way it's designed can change how it works. I've always found that relationship interesting. My background is in chemical engineering, but my interests extend into fabrication, product design, and technical visualisation. I enjoy figuring things out for myself, whether that means building something from scratch, taking a closer look at how something works, or exploring an idea through a 3D model. Not everything has to become a finished project. Sometimes I just want to test an idea, understand something better, or see what's possible.
How I Learn
I learn best when I can see something, break it down or try it for myself. I usually start with a few simple questions: What is this meant to do? What actually matters here? What can I test first? Things like diagrams, physical models, prototypes and conversations with experts usually help me get there faster. Once I understand the basic idea, I find it much easier to go deeper and zoom in. Often, I don't need the first version to be perfect. I just want it to teach me enough to make the next one better. It's iterative.
