Summary

A Civil Engineering student at the University of Canterbury who is eager to learn and develop practical skills. I am in my third year studying toward a Bachelor of Engineering with Honors at a current GPA of 6.56. Spending time in Kyoto, Japan and seeing the devastating effects of earthquakes sparked my interest in structural engineering. Two summers of internship experience has strengthened my communication skills and taught me to self-manage and problem solve. My goal is to find a role that utilises my creativity and design skills. I am currently focused on finding an internship role that will provide me with the chance to develop a new range of professional skills and experiences.
