4th Year Biomedical
Engineering Student

I am a final-year Biomedical Engineering student interested in designing medical devices, rehabilitation technologies, and assistive systems that solve real problems for people. What motivates me is the challenge of creating devices that are not only technically functional, but also practical, comfortable, and easy for users to integrate into their everyday lives.

Throughout my studies and projects, I have explored areas including wearable sensor systems, embedded technology, biomechanics, and rehabilitation engineering. I enjoy the process of turning an idea into a working solution; understanding the problem, exploring different concepts, building prototypes, testing designs, and improving them based on real feedback and constraints.

Outside of engineering, I have a strong interest in design and visual creativity. This has shaped the way I approach engineering problems by encouraging me to sketch ideas, think about how a product looks and feels, and communicate concepts clearly through visuals. I believe good medical technology comes from balancing engineering performance with thoughtful design and a genuine understanding of the people who will use it.

My goal is to continue developing healthcare technologies that combine engineering, creativity, and human-centred thinking to make a meaningful impact.

01

Medical Device Design

Translating clinical requirements into safe, manufacturable, testable devices.

02

Rehabilitation Technology

Mobility and recovery devices built around real biomechanics and real patients.

03

Human-Centred Design

Design and visual communication skills applied to usability, not just aesthetics.

02 / Projects

Selected work

Three projects spanning embedded sensing, rehabilitation hardware, and ongoing device concept work through to thesis.

Embedded Systems

Wearable Sensor Data Optimisation for Biomedical Applications

Developed and optimised a wearable sensor system for physiological signal capture, focused on improving data reliability and transmission efficiency for continuous monitoring use cases. Work spanned firmware, wireless transmission, and signal processing to reduce noise and power draw without sacrificing data fidelity.

Rehabilitation Engineering

Design and Evaluation of an Ergonomic Lower-Limb Rehabilitation Device for Improved Patient Mobility

Designed a lower-limb rehabilitation device to improve gait support and patient comfort during recovery, starting from ergonomic and biomechanical research through to CAD modelling, physical prototyping, and structured user-centred evaluation with test users.

Ongoing / Thesis

Medical Device Design Concepts

A rolling collection of concept work in progress — CAD models, sketches, and early-stage prototypes exploring new medical device and assistive technology concepts. This space will be updated as thesis work develops.

05 / Creative Design

Design thinking behind the engineering

A creative and visual design background that feeds directly back into how I sketch, prototype, and communicate engineering work.

Concept sketching
Add sketch scans →
assets/images/sketch-01.jpg

Early concept sketches used to explore device form, mechanism, and ergonomics before any CAD work begins — the fastest way to test ten ideas before committing to one.

Visual communication
Add diagram / poster →

Diagrams and figures built to explain technical systems clearly to clinical and non-technical audiences.

Concept development
Add moodboard / render →

Form and material exploration, run in parallel with engineering constraints rather than after them.

"My design background isn't separate from my engineering — it's how I get to a usable device faster: sketching before modelling, and designing for the person who has to use it, not just the spec sheet."
