In my sport I am exposed to the power of energy in the whitewater of the canoe slalom course, which has me thinking about how that energy is dissipated and how might it be captured. All these experiences have shaped me to believe a renewable energy future is possible and triggered my curiosity and desire to play a role in solving the challenges of renewable energy.

Financial support to study renewable energy engineering will enable me to develop a diverse range of skills across several engineering domains and ensure I can give sufficient focus to both my studies and training to become the best person I can be.
