Stephanie Thomsen

Student
Currently studying Bachelor of Architecture at University of Auckland, will continue to do my Master's after graduating. I have a passion for heritage conservation and sustainability and would love the opportunity to explore my interest further in my future studied and career.
Looking For a Mentor
What I am looking for in a mentor is someone who can provide advice on how to establish a successful career particularly in relation to heritage conservation, but any tips on internships, networking and business would be valuable.
