Senior Lecturer in Engineering

I am a Fellow of the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (FIMMM), licensed Professional Engineer (PE), and Chartered Engineer (CEng) with over a decade of academic experience dedicated to teaching and research. Prior to my appointment at the University of Sunderland, I held an associate professor position at the Harbin Institute of Technology, China. My research is centred on net-zero manufacturing concepts, with a primary focus on exploring additive manufacturing, hybrid welding, and related fields.

I currently serve as an associate editor for esteemed journals such as Part E: Journal of Process Mechanical Engineering (Sage Publishing), International Journal on Interactive Design and Manufacturing (IJIDeM) (Springer), Welding International, Taylor and Francis, and hold the position of academic editor for Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, as well as Advances in Polymer Technology (Wiley, Hindawi). Furthermore, I am honoured to be a member of the editorial board for the Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology, published by Taylor and Francis.

In addition to my academic responsibilities, I have been appointed as an Adjunct Professor at Lovely Professional University in Punjab, India, and Chitkara University in Punjab, India.
