About Me

I am a Smart manufacturing and Sustainability researcher experienced in designing systems (using MBSE approach) and quantifying the environmental impacts of products and manufacturing systems using methods such as life cycle assessment (LCA), process flow modelling and data science. I also work on using Machine Learning and Discrete Event Simulations (Plant simulation) for manufacturing analytics. I am interested in leveraging Digital technologies to estimate life cycle impacts associated with products and systems.

I have worked on the project "Smart Mobile Factory for Hyperloop Infrastructure Projects (SMF4INFRA)" in collaboration with EuroTube, ETH Zurich and TU Delft. I was involved in modelling factory layout, operations, logistics and sustainability assessment in the project.

My latest project focuses on Sustainability Modelling of Complex Manufacturing Systems to support Digital Product Passports (DPPs).
