Greg Blaze
Greg Blaze, a seasoned civil engineer with a career spanning local infrastructure and international humanitarian aid, shares his journey from a student unsure of his path to a global project manager. After initially studying electrical engineering and working at BHP in Newcastle, Greg switched to civil engineering, finding his stride in local government where he oversaw major projects like the Taree bypass. A three-month stint in war-torn Somalia for the World Food Programme sparked a passion for humanitarian engineering, leading him to spend five years overseas and subsequently dedicate his later career to building schools, hospitals, and fire stations in places like Samoa.
