I am a Structural Engineer, which means I make sure buildings (and other structures like bridges and sport stadia) stand up. I work with Architects, who design how the building will look, Mechanical and Electrical Engineers, who work out how to light, heat and cool the building and Quantity Surveyors, who calculate how much the building will cost. Day to day, I use maths and physics to design the structure for the building, creativity to solve difficult problems and art to draw the building so a builder can build it correctly. I ring, meet and email architects and builders to make sure our designs all work together and get built as they should be. One of the best bits is when I go to site to look at the building that I designed coming to life.<\/p>\n
I always liked maths, science and art at school and building dams on the beach. Engineering gives me the opportunity to put all of these things to good use, to solve problems and to make a visible impact on the world around me. I love what I do and have been lucky enough to work on different buildings all over the world.<\/p>\n

When somebody told me engineering existed, I did a week\u2019s work experience and loved it. At university, I tried a few things to see what I liked, including:<\/p>\n After university, I decided that designing sports stadia, combining two of my interests, was for me, so went back to Bath where I have been since. Whilst at this design company, I have worked on many different things, including:<\/li>\n Interests<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n
