What I'm looking for

I am seeking operational roles in process or plant environments where I can drive continuous improvement, refine process control, and grow technical responsibility within a collaborative team.

I am a chemical engineering graduate with a strong focus on continuous improvement, process optimisation, and delivering reliable plant operations. I thrive under pressure, am goal-driven and people-orientated, and continuously seek opportunities to learn and elevate team performance.

In my roles I have supported process engineers, updated P&IDs to reflect real-time field modifications, produced technical reports, and performed equipment monitoring and sample analysis. I have experience in both bleaching and chemical plant operations and in operating continuous liquid-liquid and liquid-gas separation processes for furfural production.

I consistently contribute to safe, high-quality production by managing start-up and shutdown procedures, maintaining continuous operation of machinery, and collaborating across functions to meet project goals and quality specifications.
