Your Instructor
Harry Munro CEng MIMechE MSc BEng (Hons.)
I've been working with simulation for over 14 years across all sorts of industries, from transport to mining to defence to energy.
Simulation is the beating heart of everything I do. It's how I 10x'd my annual earnings and achieved financial freedom. It's how I enjoy a fully flexible, remote lifestyle. And it's why people seek me out from all over the world for help with their modelling and simulation projects.
My work has never been dull: from individual contributor to team lead, tech lead, business owner and consultant. This allows me to bring a unique perspective to training and coaching others.
Based remotely across the UK and Bermuda, I enjoy rum-fuelled island life with my beautiful wife and son, while helping others to create their own success stories.
