I completed my bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from the Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW) in 2016, and I have recently concluded my MSc. in Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technologies (REAT) from University College London (UCL). The programme gave me the opportunity to strengthen my engineering background whilst learning about anatomy, biomechanics, regulations, and healthcare device design.
After my MSc. I started my own MedTech company in London. UroSense was a company focused on entirely redesigning the urinary catheter to help prevent urinary tract infections. I was part of Kickstart Global and took part in entrepreneurship programs at UCL and Imperial College London allowing me to raise nearly £10,000 to build the first prototype in-house. More recently I moved to Ho Chi Minh City and joined Antler entrepreneurship programme.
Before my master's, I spent over 3 years as a full-time Research Engineer at the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD), collaborating with the SUTD-MIT International Design Centre (IDC) and SUTD Digital Manufacture and Design Centre (DManD). During my tenure, I led projects for the development of sensors for underwater robots and industrial robots and drones. Moreover, I studied silver-based elastic composites for the fabrication of strain sensors.
I am highly interested in research and innovation but more importantly translating technologies to the market and cause a positive impact in society. I started to conduct independent research over 10 years ago, ever since, I have completed several projects in diverse institutions around the world including the private sector. This webpage serves to share my research as well as completed projects throughout this time. For any inquiries do not hesitate to contact me!
