Summary

Recently completed a Masters degree in Earth Science at The University of Melbourne with a project relating to hydrogeology. I'm interested in developing a career in environmental science, and am currently looking for fulltime work in and around Melbourne. I’m understanding of the fieldwork time commitment that graduate earth science positions can demand, and I’m excited to begin down this career path. I have experience working on a mine site, in a government geology branch and in consultancy, totalling approximately 6 months fulltime and 2 years of casual work.
