As a Research Engineer Electrical, working in physical oceanography. I specialize in offshore renewable energy, including floating offshore wind, wave, and tidal energy resource. My extensive electrical knowledge from the mining sector, UK electrical industry, and master’s in marine renewable energy has enabled an in-depth understanding of grid integration and optimization to arrays. This includes wave-tide interaction and quantifying environmental impacts through my marine biology and oceanography.  

Working at the Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult as part of the Marine-i team, TIGER, Dynamic Cable, and Cornwall FLOW Accelerator (CFA) projects. I collaborate closely with the teams at the University of Plymouth, University of Exeter, and the wider industry, keen to support SMEs throughout the UK to accelerate their innovation in offshore renewable energy. Working with the Floating Offshore Wind Centre of Excellence (CoE FOW) I have designed and analysed dynamic cable systems for floating wind projects, including dynamic cables, connectors, and cable protection systems for redundancy.

I am a PhD researcher, specialising in offshore renewable energy investigating and contribution to develop floating offshore wind optimisation to arrays in the Celtic Sea to meet the Governments net-zero ambitions. Titled, ‘Optimal siting of novel floating offshore wind turbines’.
