This week, Gary Abbott spoke with Melany Rourke, a South African native who travelled to Ireland six years ago to pursue her studies in engineering to only later land a full-time position as manufacturing engineer with McHale. Originally from a farming family in Zimbabwe, Melany talks about her families struggles of being evicted from their family farm, to starting out a new life in Botswana which later allowed her to recognise her passion for engineering. Melany discusses, everything from farming and growing up in South Africa, moving to Ireland to study at MTU and how that led to a full-time job with the world-renowned brand that is McHale.
