Brenda PORA
Summary
I am an undergraduate Mining Engineer in my third year of studies at the PNG University of Technology who is aspiring to build a career and become an asset to the Mining Industry of PNG. At my current level of study, I am well versed with the general and quite in-depth knowledge on the Mining industry and its role in the country mostly in theory and partly in practical. I have relevant experience in my field of study from the lectures in class, Laboratory sessions, and Field trips, from which I have grasped as much as I could to the best of my ability.
I am a resilient person who likes to do voluntary work to engage with other people and be part of a team that serves the same purpose in any field and profession.
I am voluntarily introverted but can be outspoken when necessary as I see fit.
I am an advocate of Team Work because I have experienced its benefits and am always happy to be part of a team in any context.
