In brief

About me

A 25-year journey of making and teaching, from the shop floor to academia.

I am an academic and researcher who integrates more than 25 years of shop-floor experience in the design and manufacturing industry with the interdisciplinary research methodology of academia. By combining a quarter-century of industrial practice with my technical command of materials processing technologies, heat treatment processes, CNC machine tool technologies and CAD/CAM systems, I aim to build a strong bridge between theoretical knowledge and the realities of the field. In line with current industrial needs, I continue to deepen my work around the integration of artificial intelligence and smart technologies into manufacturing processes, automation systems, and sustainable business development models.
