My professional background

I joined DMA Engineers in February 2017. Previously I worked at Johnstaff Projects as a project engineer (project management), where I was involved in managing projects in the health and commercial sectors. Prior to this I was a combat engineer in the Australian Army. I separated from the Australian Army in order to attend university. I currently work for the army part-time as an instructor in my free time.

Years in the army teamed with my formal education and now practical engineering experience has instilled in me a strong drive to problem solve. I work to understand client needs and endeavour to provide innovative solutions in a timely manner.  I believe that a full understanding of a client’s intent is critical to a successful project for all involved. I work with a motivated team of multi-discipline engineers to provide co-ordinated and workable solutions, in a flexible delivery format to meet any client’s needs.

My specialisations

• Multi-disciplinary design management
• Air conditioning and ventilation design
• Section J assessments and reports
• Retail solutions

What creating inner beauty means to me

In building engineering, there is inner beauty in elegant solutions that enhance everyday comfort and function.
