Profile

I graduated with a PhD from the Department of Fuel and Energy at the University of Leeds in 1992 and then joined the School of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Leeds and was a research fellow there from 1992 to 2006.

I became a lecturer at the University of 91Ö±²¥ in 2006 and lectured on fluid mechanics and heat transfer. I have been seconded to Multidisciplinary Engineering Education running labs across the faculty on thermodynamics, heat transfer, mechanics and dynamics.
