Summary

As a current architectural technology student, I am a dedicated, eager learner who is passionate about creating and taking part in innovative and sustainable building designs with technical knowledge, analytical and exceptional research skills. I have gained vital knowledge about effective design principles, various construction materials, building practices and Irish building regulations.


Considering my future educational prospects with a Masters in Construction Management, I am particularly interested and eager to enter into the site field, such as site management. I strongly believe the role of a Quality Assurance inspector would prove to be an extremely beneficial experience for me. With the skills I already possess, I am open to acquiring a diverse range of skills and knowledge within this position.


I am ready to bring this expertise and apply it to the current position you are offering while also engaging with other team members of different departments within the company in order to achieve it's aims and goals.
