The is the 16th year the award has been presented. It is designed to champion the achievement and potential of young building-services engineers.
Andy Ford, who was one of the judges, comments, ‘The standard of the entrants was very high this year, leading to the longest shortlist for over a decade. This should give us all great optimism for the future and confidence in our ability to keep producing exciting, young engineering talent.’

She also helps to promote engineering to young people as a STEMNET (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics Network) and IMechE ambassador.
