Year 1 Student - 2026 Cohort - Cohort 8

My background is in new product development, where I have spent over a decade in industry developing products from concept through to market release across a broad range of sectors, including regulated industries. Alongside my industry experience, I have also taught on the BEng and MEng Product Design for Manufacture programme at the University of Nottingham.

I have always worked in multidisciplinary teams and have seen how products and physical systems are becoming increasingly connected. This is where I would like to expand my expertise into cybersecurity, with a particular interest in bridging the gap between new product development and cybersecurity to help innovate and build secure and reliable products and systems.
