About

After 16 rewarding years as a teacher, I’ve taken a bold step into the world of Building Surveying, combining my passion for problem-solving, people, and the built environment. I’ve recently joined Hollis Global as a Graduate Building Surveyor, where I’m excited to apply my transferable skills in communication, project management, and analytical thinking to a new industry. I completed my Master’s in Building Surveying with UCEM, and I’m now focused on developing my technical expertise, working towards chartership with RICS, and contributing meaningfully to the future of sustainable and intelligent buildings. Career changes aren’t just about starting over; they’re about building on what you’ve learned and choosing growth. I’m proud to be part of a forward-thinking team at Hollis and eager to see where this new chapter leads.
