Summary

Enthusiastic and motivated undergraduate geoscience major looking to make a step into the industry of Earth Science and Geology. I look forward to expanding my knowledge even further and getting some hands-on practical experience in the industry, with a reputable company like yourselves.

I have had some time to develop my skills and understanding through practical learning with the University of New England. I have had hands on experience and gained a plethora of knowledge from participating in my Lapidary club & Mineral club, and have explored my interest in rehabilitation and regeneration through being an active member of Illawarra bush care.
