Summary

Business-driven individual with more than 10 years working in the electrical engineering sector, including working on the tools to site management, through to setting up my own ICP Electrical engineer company. Determined and experienced in client rapport, support, budget control and employee mentoring and coaching. Motivated leader with over 10 years progressive experience in the electrical engineering industry. Offering expertise in management, electrical infrastructure, including LCT, Battery storage, HV an LV systems, with underground cable and jointing, with aptitude in health and safety. Energetic self-starter and team builder, able to navigate high stress situations and achieve goals on time and on budget.


Having been my own owner operator of an electrical engineer company, working with NERS accreditation as an ICP, I feel I have a concrete understanding of the electrical and construction industry, working along side multiple IDNO's, to build client based schemes ranging from industrial sites, to commercial and housing. Along side this I have an understanding of solar, Battery storage and most recently, LCT operations as we move into a more greener and more sustainable future.
