I am a 30-year-old graduate from the University of Pretoria’s department of Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering where I obtained both my B.Eng and B.Eng (Hons) degrees. Over the last six years, I have gained experience in the underground coal mining industry and at present I am employed as a Section Engineer (2.13.3.1 appointment) at Bosjesspruit Colliery (Sasol Mining). I am a highly energetic person with a passion for all things technical, capable of climbing steep learning curves.
