As part of the EIT program, I had the opportunity to work with multiple departments at the City of London. Stormwater Engineering (June 2022 - December 2022):As part of Stormwater Engineering division, I assisted with developing design guidance for low impact development (LID) features, researching and evaluating solutions for lot level drainage concerns and completing cost analyses of stormwater management facilities. Transportation Planning and Design (April 2021-May 2022):As part of the Transportation Planning and Design division, I assisted with project coordination for transportation engineering projects including communicating with design consultants and engaging with the public, stakeholders and Indigenous communities. I also assisted with the design of active transportation infrastructure including sidewalks and cycling lanes.

Sudbury, Ontario, Canada

KCB is an engineering, geoscience and environmental company helping clients achieve sustainable resource development from concept to closure. As an EIT with KCB’s Mining Environmental Group, I assisted in helping clients manage their water resources challenges. I updated water balance models, developed in HEC-HMS and excel, to inform future water management decisions. I also ensured field data collection programs were executed in a timely and safe manner to meet project requirements.

Brisbane, Australia

In 2016, I pursued a three month internship in Australia to get a better understanding of what it is like to be a global engineer. With the Water Team at Hatch, I assisted with the development and analysis of water balance models for mines in Australia. I used ArcGIS to derive water catchment areas and stage storage curves for mine sites using topographic data. I modified water balance models using two types of software, GoldSim and OpSim, and analyzed water balance model results for presentation to clients.

Mississauga , Ontario

As a Water Student at Hatch, I gained experience in research and development. I worked individually to complete a literature review for a research project on dewatering technologies for mine tailings. I demonstrated creativity and attention to detail by developing and executing lab tests to analyze freeze-thaw concepts on tailings. I also gained excellent written and verbal communication skills by assisting with process flow diagrams, data analysis and report writing for mine dewatering treatment plant upgrades.

Woodstock, On

At Oxford County, I gained experience working in the public sector. I met deadlines and managed time effectively when assisting with projects relating to sanitary sewer and water main infrastructure. I also assisted with budget tracking and scheduling of projects. I outlined technical specifications, created cost and quantity estimates, and attended site meetings for sanitary sewer and water main tenders.
