I originally joined the water industry because I have a love for our planet and wanted to work in an industry that is linked with improving the quality of our water and water ways. As my career developed, I moved into the energy sector where I was responsible for making significant reductions to the way businesses consume energy and the use of renewables and our impact on the climate.
