I've made a strategic move for my career.

I've lowered my work hours to 32/week. To study and balance efforts with my personal projects.

After considerable thought I've decided to jump on the chartership pathway and do all the necessary things to be a CpEng. Since I'm also running continued education programs, this made it tricky to balance time and deadlines effectively.

My employer was very supportive of this and gave me some options, from which I chose to drop some work hours. Enough time to study and reach out for the mentorship needed to support the application.

I've been training people on Engineering comms and applied coding for drafting. As well as doing a mentorship program with Canterbury tech, Training regularly and preparing materials for upcoming talks.

Will be sharing my journey here, hopefully inspiring others to make change and fill their careers with meaning and enthusiasm.

This is a whole new road for me, I’m very excited and also humbled. after looking for a snap that catches the vibe, found this one.

Highway through Atacama, with always a little bit of engineering popping up on my photos.
