“I asked myself: Do you want to challenge yourself and help lead the change for a cleaner future? I answered yes and chose the power industry.”
Who am I
I’m a final year student undertaking a Bachelor of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Adelaide. My interest is renewable energy since I’m passionate and excited about a sustainable future where we can manage power more reliably and efficiently. I endeavour to challenge myself and use my talents to best serve the community and people around me.
Why I chose a career in power
The power industry is rapidly evolving with many new emerging technologies and issues that didn’t exist a decade ago. Sometimes older solutions are outdated and often there isn’t one clear answer. This is where engineers get involved. The power industry offers vast opportunities to apply technical knowledge and engineering expertise in something rewarding, exciting and everchanging.
Where it all started
Studying towards a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Electrical and Electronic) from the University of Adelaide
My work experience.
What's next?
A memorable experience was probably the site visits to different substations. It was insightful and beneficial to physically see the equipment. I learned more about the practical systems involved and found it easier to link back to theory and schematics.
