A senior dam engineer with over 15 years’ experience, and a member of the Panel of Supervising Engineers under the Reservoirs Act, Rhiannon has been involved in a variety of projects at all stages, from optioneering studies through to detailed design and construction.
She has worked on several large multidisciplinary engineering projects both in the UK and overseas, developing her technical and leadership skills along the way. Career highlights include working on the Abberton Reservoir Expansion in Essex, as engineering and construction contract supervisor, and traveling to Ethiopia to work on Genale Dawa III as a quality assurance and quality control engineer.
While based in Denver, Colorado, Rhiannon worked on the Gross Dam Expansion, the largest raise of a concrete dam using roller compacted concrete in the world, and Chimney Hollow, an asphalt concrete core dam currently under construction. Now back in the UK, she applies the experience and knowledge gained from previous projects to the challenging and exciting engineering projects the Hydropower and Dams group continues to offer.
When not at work, Rhiannon loves to go camping with her family, especially along the coast. She also enjoys cooking, swimming, and spending time pottering about in the garden with her kids.
