Engineering made real.

Really real.

In October 2024, I joined Edinburgh University Formula Student as a vehicle dynamics engineer. Since then, my involvement has far surpassed my expectations. In December 2024, I was tasked with modelling and designing the suspension, steering, and shock assemblies for our SISU 26E concept class car. At the Formula Student UK competition hosted at Silverstone Circuit, I was able to put my involvement to the test, participating in scrutineerings and design presentations. In September 2025, I was honoured to be chosen as the driver for the team, and participated in testing sessions at Knockhill Racing Circuit, thrashing our SISU 25D car on slicks in the wet.


Suspension Geometry Simulator

The Suspension Geometry Simulator is a project developed to model and optimise the suspension geometry for the SISU 26E concept class car. Built in MATLAB, Simulink, and Simscape from scratch, the program sweeps through every possible suspension geometry and measures its performance. The data is then processed and the final suspension geometry is used as the basis of the car's suspension design in SolidWorks.
