My passion is in two areas:
1. applied research (sustainable manufacturing practices) while听my expertise area is in听materials development, process improvement, process development and implementation.听My current research interests are in process optimisation and improvement in industry-linked projects. These projects include advanced material development with a focus on听nanoparticles and surface treatment,听characterisation at laboratory, pilot scale level听through to听industrial scale-up.
2. engineering education with a focus on authentic learning practices including Project-Based Learning, Team-Based Learning, Work-Integrated Learning and Generative Artificial Intelligence.
