Why Work With Me
Expertise You
Can Trust.
Most consultants go deep on one domain. I bridge four — and that breadth is the advantage your project needs.
Internationally Trained
MSc in Renewable Energy Engineering from Brunel University London — one of the UK's top engineering institutions. Every recommendation is evidence-based, not sales-driven.
Real Engineering Background
Not just advisory — hands-on R&D engineering experience at EEB Engineering Design & Consultancy, spanning product development and energy systems.
End-to-End Delivery
I scope, brief, manage, and quality-check. You get a single point of accountability — no chasing multiple vendors.
"The best engineers don't just solve problems — they ask better questions first."
— Rakesh Servai
