Summary

I am a passionate 24 year old civil engineer from New Zealand with a Bachelor's of Honors degree in Civil Engineering. I’m currently working in site supervision in Sydney, Australia. I enjoy the management aspects of my current role and the opportunity to oversee projects, but I am eager to pivot back to my core interest in engineering, as the problem-solving challenges it offers are what truly stimulate and motivate me. My experience spans civil engineering design and detailing on CAD, along with hands-on site engineering for concrete plinth designs, stormwater upgrades, and car park construction within a large pulp and paper mill. I am excited to continue growing my skills and contribute to impactful projects in the civil engineering field, particularly in reinforced concrete structures and structural construction.

Interests

I have a strong passion for fitness, particularly in bodybuilding, powerlifting, and nutrition. Having competed in powerlifting competitions, I’m now focused on building muscle and preparing for my first bodybuilding competition. This year, I’ve also developed an interest in kickboxing and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. My enthusiasm for fitness extends to working with others, and I find great satisfaction in helping people reach their physical goals. I also have a strong interest in self improvement outside of my physical goals. Due to this I enjoy reading, and learning new skills in my spare time.
