Part III Civil Engineering student at University of Auckland

About

I'm a third-year Civil Engineering (Honours) student at the University of Auckland with a strong interest in structural and civil engineering. Through my coursework, I've worked on projects spanning foundation design, structural load analysis, hydraulic network design, and environmental impact assessment — building both technical depth and the ability to apply engineering principles to real-world problems. Alongside my studies, I've worked part-time in hospitality for over two years, which has sharpened my communication, teamwork, and ability to stay composed under pressure — skills I bring into every engineering team environment. I'm currently seeking a civil or structural engineering internship in Auckland where I can contribute meaningfully, grow professionally, and bridge the gap between academic knowledge and industry practice.
