Information Technology: Systems Analyst / Software in Fiji (Australian Youth Ambassador for Development - AusAID). Department of Lands and Surveys (Fiji)
"I am currently working on the development of a system to administer all the leasehold land in Fiji. This will increase department turnover and free up valuable resources for other tasks. In addition to producing physical deliverables I have the joint responsibility of ensuring that I transfer my skills effectively with local counterparts. This sharing of knowledge will give department IT staff the confidence and skills to undertake similar projects in the future.

I have always had a strong desire to have a positive impact on the world and to do something that I felt was valid. I consider myself very lucky to have been given so many opportunities denied to those from developing nations and it is such a privilege to be able to use the skills gained from my education and work experience to benefit others in such a direct and tangible way.   The knowledge that I am improving peoples' lives in a small way in Fiji is something I find deeply satisfying."
