During my Master’s degree in Engineering Design, I undertook a placement at Hoare Lea. My favourite project worked on was a local community centre development. I enjoyed the level of responsibility given as well as the experience and knowledge represented in my design team and colleagues in general. I returned to Hoare Lea as a graduate in 2022 and enjoy working with some great people as well as being involved in STEM outreach, organising work experience for young people.
