2014- Present: Bachelor of Engineering (Electronics) (Honours)
Flinders University, Tonsley, South Australia
2013- 2014: Bachelor of Engineering (Electronics)
Flinders University, Bedford Park, South Australia
2012 -2013 (transfer): Bachelor of Engineering (Environmental Technologies)
Flinders University, Bedford Park, South Australia
2011-2012: Bachelor of Engineering Science
Flinders University, Bedford Park, South Australia
Work experience:
20 week work placement as Instrumental/Electrical Engineer - GPA Engineering
Agriculture farm (+10 years) – Virginia, South Australia
Projects:
SA Power Networks:
Protection Relays & devices Settings Management System & amendment Checking
Project
Substation Auditing for SA Power Networks and Eletranet shared substations
Prepare RaLFs (Radial Load Flow) for 11kV feeders across South Australia’s distribution
Network
Schneider Electric WSOS Protection & Control Software for Recloser Settings
Protection device time current curve grading for 19kV SWERs across South Australia
2. AGL:
AGL Torrens Island Power station: B station Boiler Management system (Efficient gas
testing)
AutoCAD Terminal boxes and layout drawing- SA WATER (Bolivar Wastewater Treatment
Plant)
Skills:
SA Power Network’s Protection Settings Management System
As I have worked on their Protection Settings Management System in the past, I am
familiar with the settings features within the system and the programs used for
protection engineering works such as PSS6 drafter, Dekho and Field view.
Differentiating Assets within substations
From the Substation Auditing Project, I am able to read and understand SLDs (Single Line
Diagrams) of substations from 11kV up to 66kV.
Protection device time current grading
I have experience with grading reclosers for the end of line transformer on 19kV SWERs.
This enables me to determine if there is adequate protection for a particular feeder.
Programming measuring devices
From the Boiler Management system project at AGL Torrens Island Power Station, I am
able to program a data logger and a portable emission analyser. With the data logger, I
am able to program it for logging temperature and wind velocity reading at different time
intervals. With the portable emission analyser, I have experience with programming it to
detect different types of gases such as CH4, CO2 and O2.
Computer Skills:
Software: Microsoft office, MATLAB, RS Logix 500 (PLC), MPLAB X, AutoCAD
Programming language: C
Strong determination, persistence, discipline:
Due to the fact that I was have worked in a professional Engineering work environment
allowed me to have self-confidence, to be organised, know my deadlines and thus get the
work done on time.
Excellent presentation and communication skills
Completion of a number of oral presentations and research reports at University has
allowed these skills to be improved upon and demonstrated at high levels.
Can work independently, and in a team
Having spent my 20 weeks internship at a consultant engineering company allowed me
to work on projects with other experienced engineers, whilst working on other small
projects independently.
3. Punctuality
GPA Engineering strives itself as a professional consultant engineering company; this
meant that I had to be professional and be at the office by 8:30 every day and at
meetings on time.
