      I really enjoy sports ! I’ve done lots of different things in my life: Ice skating, Basketball, Swimming, Dancing, Surfing.

      I’m a big fan of manga, so I also do a lot of drawing and reading. My 2 younger brothers are too, and we can exchange books sometimes which is a lot of fun.

    • My pronouns are:

      She/Her

    • How I use Maths in my work:

      I use a surprising amount of trigonometry at work: to work out how forces are applied to a structure and how that affects it, I need to make sure I know exactly which direction everything is going in.

      Because I look at a wind turbines in the deep-water ocean, I need to model waves which involves complex equations, and a lot of sines and cosines!

       

       

    • My Work:

      I design and assess the foundations of offshore wind turbines. I have to model structures and waves to make sure the whole ~200m tall turbine doesn’t fail.

      • What did you want to be after you left school?

        I didn't know at all! I just knew I wanted to be involved with renewable energy and learn about mechanical engineering.

        Were you ever in trouble at school?

        I always got into trouble for my terrible handwriting and being quite messy. I didn't always do homework, but I tried my best to listen and actively participate in class and that's where I learned the most.

        If you weren't doing this job, what would you choose instead?

        I would choose to study art, or maybe study for a doctorate in engineering

        Who is your favourite singer or band?

        My favourite band is Rage Against The Machine. Maybe that's why I got in trouble in school ?

        What's your favourite food?

        I love fried chicken! With chips of course

        If you had 3 wishes for yourself what would they be? - be honest!

        1 - To be slightly taller 2 - To have better music taste 3 - To have an endless supply of fried chicken

        Tell us a joke.

        Sorry, I didn't hear that, could you repeat the question ?
