Abi is passionate about promoting STEM in schools. She believes that showing young people the importance and application of these subjects will inspire a new way of thinking and learning which will help to shape future technical workers and industry leaders. 

In her own words: 

“Over the past few years I have been privileged to work in an industry where I can ​utilise both my skills and personal interests. I have always enjoyed math and science as well as being creative. Working on buildings and designing systems brings all of that together and seeing something you’ve designed ​come to fruition is always ​very rewarding. 
 
I have always believed it is important to work in an environment where you can really voice your opinion and feel like a valued member of a team - I am grateful to have found that at mstep.
 
Outside of work I enjoy calligraphy, music and binge-watching TV shows​. I have been
developing my calligraphy skills over the past 5 years and find it quite therapeutic. I also have an almost 2-year-old border collie named Lincoln - he is a terror, but great fun and I spend as much time with him as I can.”
