      I like my job because the brain is a bit of a mystery… we don’t really understand how it works. Sometimes it’s a bit like a treasure hunt or a quiz, we have to find all of the clues and put them together to find out the answers, which is a lot of fun! Plus, I get paid! Which is extra fun!

      Love it! Our planet is so complex, and trying to figure out how the soil and rock might react to a new building, bridge, or tunnel can be next to impossible. It’s like trying to figure out the picture on a jigsaw puzzle when you only have 5% of the pieces. So you have to be a detective of sorts. Also, it takes me all over the world! I get to travel a lot for work, it’s one of the reasons why I chose this career – getting to see new places all the time is really exciting.
