About

Mechanical engineering graduate from the University of Melbourne, currently pursuing a Master of Engineering with a focus on aerospace and mechanical systems. I have a strong interest in engineering design, problem solving, and applying technical knowledge to real-world challenges. Alongside my studies, I work as a Shift Supervisor at Supercheap Auto, where I lead store operations, provide technical automotive parts advice, and maintain high standards of customer service. I also work as a private mathematics tutor with over four years of experience, supporting primary and secondary school students in developing strong problem-solving skills and academic confidence. I am currently seeking opportunities within the mechanical engineering industry, particularly in aerospace, automotive, or advanced manufacturing, where I can apply my analytical and technical skills while continuing to develop as an engineer.
