About
I am a PhD candidate with proven analytical skills and practical knowledge in the industry, eager to gain more knowledge in hydrological and coastal engineering and its application in the real world.
I would like to introduce myself as a great listener, enthusiastic, highly organized learner who is passionate about Civil Engineering. I am a risk-taker and capable of adapting to any environment. I am comfortable working independently and as a team member in a fast-paced, hands-on, growth-orientated work environment. I am also equipped with leadership skills as many times I had to take the lead role in projects and I guide my team to achieve success. I respect and am open to listening to diverse opinions.
