With a background in ship hydrodynamics and experience in propulsion system integration in ship new built industry I focus my work at at the interface between hydrodynamic performance, propulsion system design, control and automation and the operability by the crew. Areas of interest are in power & propulsion system optimization, define and test functional descriptions of system automation, investigate system safety, verify designs and systems to the realistic ship operations, and taking the crew interaction into the design loop. In my role as Project Manager at MARIN I like to find interactions between different disciplines. I like to connect to people and initiate new collaborative projects.
