Projects
My current focus is on my Formula Student graduation project, where I am developing a complete aerodynamic package (front/rear wings, diffuser, sidepods, and undertray) and contributing to drivetrain design.
I’m driven by the challenge of translating theory into real-world engineering solutions—whether that’s through advanced aerodynamics, lightweight design, or motorsport performance. My long-term goal is to contribute to the motorsport or high-performance automotive industry, applying engineering creativity to push performance limits.
