At school Bobby was well known for his friendly personality.
Combined with his enthusiasm and exemplary work ethic, Bobby was
tagged as an outstanding student. While achieving highly all round,
he excelled in Technology and Design and wanted to pursue higher
education in these subjects.
At the time that Bobby was awarded a First Foundation Scholarship,
Claire Stewart at Chevpac Machinery said "When we first met Bobby
we were impressed with his overall enthusiasm about all aspects of
his life - his studies, music, family and volunteer work. For such
a young man he seems very clear and realistic about his career
aims."
Bobby graduated in 2010 with a Bachelor of Architectural Studies
from The University of Auckland. He aims to go on to study for a
Masters in Architecture. He works at The Phobic Trust where he has
been Phone Line Manager and a senior volunteer for several years.
His maturity shines through in this role as he counsels people with
anxiety disorders.
Bobby's effervescent personality continues and his passion for both
architecture and people is clear. Bobby is part of the Auckland
chapter of Architecture for Humanities and aspires to work as an
architect.
