Mechanical Engineering Draftspersons, Technicians

“I am curious and love to construct things. If you wanted the tallest and strongest tower made of spaghetti and marshmallows, ask me, I love a challenge! I like to understand the theories that sit behind the design and creativity of things and how they are made. When I think about my skills and the type of work I’d like to get into, it would definitely be something that blends maths, science and engineering and art. Chimpanzees are great at creative problem solving with others, and I dig that!”

“"Look no further, because I’m the person who can get the job done! I’m at my best when using my hands to fix or build things, it comes naturally to me and I enjoy it! I’m a practical person and I can’t imagine myself sitting at a desk and staring at a screen all day. Getting down and dirty, whether it’s maintenance, building a house or installing a pipe, is my kind of thing – I didn’t choose the tradie life, the tradie life chose me! Funnel-web spiders are experts at building and constructing things, they've got it sorted out."”
