I build and apply simulation tools to understand and predict how offshore energy systems behave under real operating conditions.

I help teams design and simulate offshore energy systems to evaluate performance and reduce risk before deployment.

My background is in mechanical engineering and offshore renewable energy, with an EngD from the University of Edinburgh’s IDCORE programme, where I now serve as a board member.

Over the past decade, I’ve helped develop and lead marine energy simulation software with Innosea and the National Lab of the Rockies (NLR), formerly NREL.

That work has involved the U.S. Department of Energy’s Hydropower and Hydrokinetic Office (H2O) and collaborators across industry, academia, and government, including Sandia National Laboratories, TotalEnergies, and NASA.

That work has also included serving as technical lead on the SEA-Stack simulation platform.

I contribute to open-source and research simulation tools used in offshore energy R&D, including work recognised with an R&D 100 Award.

Outside work, I spend most of my time with my family — often by the sea.
