What got you into Electrical Engineering?

"My family had an electrical engineering business so I grew up surrounded by all
these electrical devices and motors, transformers, PLC’s. Being in this environment
is what sparked in electricity and control systems.".

What are the biggest challenges you face in your role?

"One of the biggest challenges we come across in the job is the weather. Most of the
wind farms are in quite exposed and elevated areas. We have to check the
weather forecast constantly and risk assess if it’s safe enough to do the job".
