I didn't choose a job in the power industry! It chose me!
Who am I
I'm an AIPM accredited Project Delivery Manager from Victoria who's worked in the Energy sector for over 20years, currently working at Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO).
I love to play tennis, read and spend quality time with my 6yr old daughter, 8 yr old son and husband.
Why I chose a career in power
I didn't choose a job in the power industry. I just happened to apply for a job in the power industry in my late 20's and I stayed ever since. It's an interesting sector that has a lot of diverse roles available to satisfy my curiosity.
Where it all started
Bachelor of Business - Major in Accounting. I started my career in Finance in the Power Industry and then moved into Project Delivery. I started working at ANZ when I was 22. I then moved to London and worked in a Marketing agency for a couple of years. When i came back to Australia I did a degree in Finance, I didn't follow the traditional route of getting a degree straight out of Uni, I went travelling around Australia and Europe instead.
My work experience.
What's next?
I'm currently helping connect Renewables into the Victorian Grid. There's so much change and opportunity within the power industry with all the net zero targets, it's an exciting time to be in the industry.
