While at school, Mathematics was my favourite subject and my strength in analytical skills and logical thinking were primary motivation factors for me to pursue Engineering as a profession.
I was fortunate to succeed in IITJEE, considered one of the toughest entrance examinations in India for admission into Engineering, and joined IIT Madras to pursue Civil Engineering. And here I am 11 years later still passionate about the subject and keen to make a difference in the field of Engineering.
I am a Structural Engineer with over seven years of global engineering and site experience and my role enables me to bolster the industry’s collective work to secure energy resilience by exploring and designing renewable sources of energy, and by sustainably extending the life of our current energy assets.
Through my career, I have had the opportunity to work with various clients such as TOTAL, Shell, Neptune, BP, Aramco with projects in various locations including North Sea, Saudi Arabia, Gulf of Mexico, etc. In my current role, I am part of the Advanced Analysis team and I help clients solve advance and complex problems in offshore energy platforms. My most recent work involved helping one of the clients to increase gas exports in an existing offshore platform by performing structural integrity checks and thus contributing to the sustainability of the asset.
I am also co chairing the Women’s network at Worley and an advocate for diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
