Building Physics & Retrofit Specialist | Domestic Decarbonisation | Techno-Economic Modelling

Profile Summary

I am a University of Cambridge-educated engineer (MEng, MRes) and current PhD researcher specialising in the energy retrofit of domestic buildings, the wider climate impacts of the built environment and the viability of net-zero pathways. My work sits at the intersection of building physics, engineering systems, and decision-making under real-world constraints. I help organisations move from high-level sustainability ambitions to technically sound, cost-aware and practically deliverable solutions. I have experience in: • Techno-economic modelling of retrofit strategies • Carbon and lifecycle performance analysis • Data-driven decision tools for the built environment • Translating complex technical evidence into clear guidance • Analysing aggregated net-zero carbon pathways Alongside research, I have a strong practical and site-based understanding of how buildings are constructed and upgraded, allowing me to bridge the gap between modelling assumptions and real-world performance. I work with consultancies, startups, manufacturers, policy groups and property stakeholders who need rigorous technical insight without academic abstraction.
