UNIQ You Advisor Session: Exploring Careers with Angela GU

Angela, a Specialist in Productivity Analysis at Rio Tinto, began her career journey with an open mind, unsure of where she wanted to go. With strengths in maths and science, she initially studied human biology and chemistry before discovering her passion for problem-solving and teamwork. This led her to pursue a Bachelor of Engineering Science and Finance, followed by a Master of Civil Engineering.

Now working in the mining and resources industry, Angela helps teams solve problems, streamline processes, and improve business performance. Her career has been shaped by curiosity, adaptability, and seizing new opportunities. This session will provide insights into her journey, the diverse career pathways in mining, and how keeping an open mind can lead to exciting possibilities.

St Mark's ACS has formed a partnership with UNIQ You and will be working collaboratively with other advisers to bring more career information and insight to our students. Check out UNIQ You here. 

We are planning to schedule further Career Curiosity Series events. If there is a particular sector you are interested in and would like included in the Career Curiosity Series or would like to chat with an Old Scholar in that field, please contact Mrs Pearce, Head of Futures, epearce@stmarks.wa.edu.au
