I am a Bachelor of Science graduate from the University of Waikato with a strong foundation in soil analysis, soil testing, and large-scale geotechnical projects. Currently, I am working as an Engineering Geologist at CMW Geosciences, where I contribute to critical civil infrastructure projects, such as those for Waka Kotahi. My work involves expertise in soil compaction, dynamic cone penetrometer testing (DCP), shear vanes, nuclear density meters (NDM), and other geotechnical methodologies.In addition to my geotechnical background, I have gained valuable experience in agricultural research and environmental monitoring through my time at AgResearch. I had the privilege of collaborating with remarkable scientists, contributing to innovative projects, and leading my own research initiatives focused on sustainability and farming systems. This experience broadened my understanding of agricultural processes and environmental knowledge allowing me to bridge the gap between agriculture and environmental science.Passionate about contributing to meaningful projects, I thrive in collaborative environments where like-minded individuals work together to create sustainable and innovative solutions. My combined expertise in geotechnical engineering and agricultural research uniquely positions me to tackle challenges in environmental management and infrastructure development.
