RESUME

Professional ​

info​​
 

On the course of Civil Engineering to develop skills in design and management of construction, considering the environmental impact as well as developing a range of problem solving, interpersonal and teamwork skills across 4 years of studies.

 

After completing my summer placement working within a Health and Safety team and gaining experience on site, I returned to complete my final year, specifying in dynamics of structures with dissertation on Design of a Vibrating Barrier for seismic protection of an existing building.

 

Currently holding a position as the vice-chair in the G&S ICE Committee (Brighton &Gatwick Branch).
