Summary
As a results-oriented master's graduate in Environment and Sustainability, specializing in Infrastructure Sustainability from Monash University, bringing a solid background in architecture to complement the academic achievements. The practical experiences include a pivotal project coordinator role and an internship at the Infrastructure Sustainability Council of Australia (ISC), where a key role in implementing the Infrastructure Sustainability Rating Scheme was played. During this, I demonstrated a commitment to sustainability by conducting reviews and technical documentation for projects nationwide, showcasing a comprehensive understanding of infrastructure and construction. The skill set encompasses holistic systems thinking, stakeholder evaluation, data analysis, verifier allocations and contract management, and proficiency in preparing communications, documents, and presentations. With a keen interest in effective communication and a proven ability to forge strong bonds with colleagues, I thrive in collaborative settings. I bring a unique combination of enthusiasm, commitment, inventive thinking, and responsibility, and I am eager to apply these qualities in an ethical establishment that supports individual and occupational advancement.
