  • After finishing my undergraduate degree I began my search for a degree that would get me building! My search ended with two main contenders: one program in Melbourne would take three years to complete, whereas Bond would only take 18 months. So, I chose Bond. Getting into a field I had no idea about was daunting, but I was in awe learning about how one lecturer had a huge part in the construction side of the Sydney Olympics, to another lecturer who literally studies how buildings fall over.

  • Who would have thought that a software sales manager could transition into the construction industry – and excel as a Project Manager – in under two years’ time? This always seemed like a stretch to me, until I found Bond. Now, I’m happy to say that my dream has become my reality.
