About Me

Let us change the way you think about technology

As the Women Engineer on the IET Council and Women in Engineering Committee of World Federation of Engineering Organisations (WFEO), I advocate for gender diversity. I actively contribute to planning activities as a Committee Member on IET. In my role on the IET, IEM, WFEO and INWES, I contribute to the institution’s international engagement and relationships. Additionally, my involvement in the professional association demonstrates a commitment to networking, staying updated on industry trends, and contributing to the overall growth of the engineering field.
