Eli Macpherson
Tauranga,TGA
Summary
My name is Eli Macpherson, and I am a 20-year-old student currently in my second year of Building Science, majoring in Project Management and Sustainable Building Practices. Having grown up in Tauranga and been involved in the commercial building industry since the age of 16, I am now studying and residing in Wellington/Tauranga. I am reaching out to express my strong interest in any potential summer internship opportunities you have. I would be thrilled to be considered for such an opportunity, where I could gain practical experience and contribute to meaningful projects alongside experienced professionals. I believe this experience would not only help me apply my academic knowledge, but also facilitate both my personal and professional growth.
