About

Driven by my passion for aviation, I am always looking to improve on my technical and interpersonal skills. I am committed to safety and dedicated to high standards. I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to continue the quest for knowledge and receive multiple degrees and professional licenses along the way. Currently, I am a holder of the FAA CPL, CFI, CFII and MEI licenses, as well as an A320 type rating. Additionaly, I hold the JAA frozen ATPL, CPL, IR, MEP. These qualifications, combined with my engineering degree in aeronautics, provide a solid foundation for a successful career in aviation.

    To protect the environment and mitigate the problems of dwindling oil reserves, a considerable effort is invested in fuel cell research. With its high efficiency and zero carbon emissions, the fuel cell constitutes a promising alternative source of electrical energy in aircraft. For the purpose of continuing research, the necessity arises for a system capable of simulating the behavior of a real fuel cell without the complexity and cost factor of the same. Within the scope of my thesis, the development, validation, and implementation of such a system were performed. Replacing a real fuel cell for hardware-in-the-loop simulations, the developed emulator platform will ultimately allow for research to be conducted on a larger, yet more cost effective scale.
