With the transition to renewables driving major change and challenges, it’s an exciting time to be in the power sector and contribute to something with real impact.
Who am I
Hi, my name is Sarina. I grew up in New Zealand and moved to Australia in 2022 to study at the University of Melbourne, where I’m now in my final year of a Master of Electrical Engineering. In my spare time, I enjoy playing football and solving Rubik’s cubes.
Why I chose a career in power
What excites me most is the technical and operational challenges introduced by the transition to renewables, and the opportunity to contribute to solving these challenges and shaping how power systems are run.
Where it all started
The power sector was always in the back of my mind as a potential career path, and I was fortunate enough to land a role early in my studies and haven’t looked back since.
My work experience.
What's next?
I have been working as a Student Assistant in the EPC team at European Energy Australia since late 2023, and in 2027 I am looking to begin a full-time role in the power industry.
