Opening the German branch of AZIUGO in Hamburg, targeting the Northern European market in general for wind resource assessment services: • Business development in new market • Wind site and resource analysis for project developers, owners, financers... • Marketing strategy development and implementation

Worked in the operation and maintenance department in charge of different offshore wind turbine fields in the North Sea: •Assessed necessity for intervention against scour phenomena around certain wind turbine foundations •Contacted contractors and arranged a meeting to discuss a possible scour remediation intervention •Conceived a theoretical model (in Matlab) for the optimization of maintenance operations by minimizing cost and downtimes

The group is funded by EDF to test the resilience of nuclear reactors to earthquakes in order to decide on the safety of expanding their lifetime. My personal project was to calibrate a core prototype in order to correlate forces applied to the core with hold-values (resistance of the material to breaking) and displacements.

Organised activities respecting set pedagogic requirements. Acquired teaching methods and developed social intelligence skills

Master's at the Department of Engineering focused on Energy Technologies. My research thesis focused on developing a simulation method in the frequency domain, in order to improve the fatigue lifetime of floating offshore wind turbines using tuned mass dampers.
