When did you start in the construction industry:

I began my journey in the construction industry in August 2012.

While studying Civil Engineering at university, I was introduced to the many roles involved in a construction project. I became particularly interested in Quantity Surveying and confirmed my passion for it during a summer internship at a QS consultancy.

That hands-on experience made everything click for me, and after completing my Master’s degree, I officially started my career in this field.

Why did you join NAWIC?

I joined NAWIC because I want to contribute to empowering women in the construction industry. It’s important to me to be part of a supportive community, and I’m excited to connect with women in diverse roles and backgrounds who share a passion for shaping the built environment.

What would you like to see for the future of women in construction?

I hope to see more women thriving in construction—feeling fulfilled in their roles, confident in their contributions, and supported by a strong professional network that extends beyond their own organisations. I also wish for greater visibility and leadership opportunities for women across all areas of the industry.

Words of wisdom or tips for women at the start of or considering a career in construction:

Believe in your value and the unique perspective you bring to a project team. Don’t be afraid to speak up, stay curious, and keep learning. Construction is a collaborative industry—when you work with integrity and focus on shared goals, you can make a meaningful impact.

In my free time, I love reading books on psychology, philosophy, history, and anthropology.

I also enjoy solo swimming, travelling to experience new cultures, and playing board games with friends—it’s a great mix of fun, learning, and connection.
