I joined the IMechE in 2023 and spent my first twelve months getting to know established industry contacts, as well as developing new ones within my regions. My main responsibility is to provide support to engineers on their individual journeys to become professionally registered by delivering tailor-made workshops, group presentations, seminars, and attending networking events in industry and academia.
I really enjoy engaging and supporting engineers from various industries and specialisms, including guiding candidates through the application during the workshops I run. I am passionate about supporting undergraduate students, having worked closely with the higher education sector for the last 20 years.
I have always enjoyed making new connections throughout my career, but in this role, I am really able to make an impact in my regions by connecting people from industry with academia to benefit engineers at any stage in their learning or careers.
