What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in a collaborative environment that fosters innovation and growth.

I am an experienced audio engineer with a strong background in audio-visual system design and project management. My career spans over several years, during which I have successfully delivered numerous audio-visual projects from the tender stage to completion. I pride myself on my ability to coordinate and manage design processes throughout the project lifecycle, ensuring that all submissions are accurate and meet industry standards.

Throughout my career, I have worked on significant projects such as the Nepean Hospital Stage 2 and the St George Hospital Stage 3, where I was responsible for the design, installation, testing, and commissioning of advanced audio systems. My technical expertise is complemented by my certifications in Crestron and Dante, which enhance my capability to deliver high-quality audio solutions tailored to client specifications.

I am passionate about leveraging my skills in a challenging and growth-oriented environment, where I can contribute to innovative projects and collaborate with a dedicated team. My goal is to unify my progress with that of the organization, driving success through effective project management and design excellence.
