Summary
I am an enthusiastic and detail-oriented bachelor's degree of Civil Engineering (Honours) student, preparing to enter my penultimate year of study in August 2025. With a strong academic foundation and a keen interest in structural and infrastructure design, I am eager to apply my theoretical knowledge in a practical setting.
While supporting my tuition through nearly two years of casual work in the hospitality industry, I have developed strong communication, problem-solving, and multitasking skills in fast-paced environments. This experience, alongside my academic journey, has shaped me into a disciplined, resilient, and passionate individual.
I am highly motivated to contribute to meaningful engineering projects through an internship opportunity and am committed to continuously learning and growing as a future civil engineer focused on sustainable and practical solutions.
