I first studied mechanical engineering before pursuing a Master's in acoustics. I developed an interest in acoustics during my fluid mechanics studies, as sound can be understood as compressed fluids. I came to realise that acoustics are omnipresent across all spaces and industries, yet they are often ignored, underrated, or misunderstood. This inspired me to pursue a career in the field with the aim of increasing its visibility and impact.

I believe that learning in engineering is a never-ending process, which demands an open and observant mind, as well as willingness to adapt and improve. Valuable lessons come in many forms, from experience and successful deliveries to failures and setbacks. 

It is always rewarding to see how much a project can be refined through collaboration . Working together highlights not only the interdependence of all disciplines, but also the importance of maintaining balance between them.
