About Me

I'm a dynamicist specializing in Accident Reconstruction, with a PhD in Mechanical Engineering and a research background in mobile robotics, autonomous systems, and outdoor sensing. My work draws on experience in kinematics, dynamic systems modelling, and feedback control, along with applied experience in Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR), multispectral imaging, and high-precision GPS/IMU (RTK) systems. I gravitate toward complex problems at the intersection of sensing, modeling, and dynamics—especially those requiring clear, defensible analysis
