"Winning this award was an exceptional privilege and great satisfaction that my work and previous achievements had paid off. It also motivated me to work harder and to obtain more awards in the future.
I was part of the sustainability team acting as the sustainability student consultant at the New College Project at Oxford, UK, and we were able to be awarded the ICE Carbon Champions title for our work.
Our work was implementing sustainable practices and systems into the project to decrease carbon emissions and increase energy efficiencies."
