Graduate Bachelor of Engineering (Civil)
My desire and passion to be an engineer has seen me graduate as a Civil Engineer
and take up engineering opportunities during the course of my studies. I have worked
hard in the field and outside to pay my way through my studies to achieve my degree
and will continue to do so to be an all-round structural engineer and perform to the
best of my ability whilst learning new things. With my theoretical knowledge and the
experience I have gained with Cardno and Shamrock Civil Engineering, I am
confident to deliver as an engineer and trustworthy employee therefore I am willing to
commit to any organisation that can give me the opportunity.
