Personal Details
I hold two Master of Science degrees: Geotechnical Engineering at National University of Singapore and Geology at Novosibirsk State University, Russia. For the past 15 years, I have been living in seven different countries. It was a whirlwind of interesting people and experiences. My diverse background will be beneficial to tackle challenging projects from different perspectives. I am highly adaptable and resilient, with strong motivation to apply my innovative thinking to the projects of tomorrow.
