Summary

I am a dedicated and goal-oriented individual. I am honest, punctual, and driven by a strong work ethic, integrity, and diligence. I approach challenges with creativity and initiative, always seeking effective solutions. As an energetic and versatile team player, I thrive on challenges, diversity, and the opportunity to be integrally involved in meaningful projects.

Although my BEng Civil Engineering degree at Stellenbosch University remains incomplete due to circumstances beyond my control, I made full use of my time there to grow both academically and personally. I served as a First Year Mentor in 2021, contributed to the Stellenbosch Student Chapter Committee of the South African Institution of Civil Engineering (SAICE) in 2023, and was selected as a Dell Young Leader. I was also inducted into the Golden Key Honour Society in 2020 and received the Senior Merit Award in the same year for academic excellence.

With this chapter now behind me, I look ahead with optimism and ambition. I am ready to pursue new heights in the aeronautical space and eager to bring my resilience, discipline, and passion for innovation into a dynamic field where I can contribute meaningfully and continue striving for excellence.
