My engineering journey commenced in the dynamic FMCG industry, where I honed my skills in 6 sigma principles and continuous improvement methodologies. I then moved into power generation at ESKOM, where I was lead discipline engineer for the boiler section for the design and construction of supercritical boiler Kusile project and provided technical support in defining piping specifications for the Concentrated Solar Project (CSP1). In my tenure at Shell, I embraced the role of Focal Point for Decarbonization & Sustainability and Senior R&I

Driven by my conviction that the ongoing energy transition is a pivotal moment in history, it presents a plethora of opportunities for communities to gain autonomy and harmonize with nature. In my impactful role at Shell Downstream South Africa, I
