Summary

Strong technical researcher in materials science with a focus on high‑entropy alloys and phase stability, evidenced by doctoral research, multiple peer‑reviewed publications, and microscopy-based investigations. ac+2
Transitioned from academic research to climate-focused entrepreneurship, moving from a PhD into founding and operating a climatetech venture aimed at decarbonising homes at scale. carbonthirteen+2
Product and systems-oriented founder concentrating on industrialised, off‑site manufactured retrofit solutions — building a reproducible kit-in-a-box approach and a dry-fit brick façade to improve install productivity, reduce skilled labour dependence, and lower embodied carbon. vundahaus+1
Engages in public-facing communication and sector events — appearing on podcasts, demo days and speaker programmes to discuss scalable retrofit solutions and decarbonisation of the built environment. podimo+2
