Nalina Kumari

•Overall 7+ years of experience in Electrical Engineering field in which 6 years of experience into complete Lighting Industries.

•I enjoy liaising with other designers and colleagues, whilst still allowing myself to come up with some creative lighting choices!

•I have always enjoyed lighting- starting with my project in graduation period. But it was in the second year of my work where I took a main interest in designing, manufacturing and project management eventually. Just being able to look up at the stage and think: ‘I made this; I created this aesthetic using my own skills.’

•Since I decided my specialism, I have delivered many projects individually for both interior and exterior lighting design and delivery and I knew this was what I wanted my career to be, and I will do anything to get there.

• Led the design and implementation of lighting systems for commercial and residential projects.
• Offering technical support to project managers by assisting with the delivery of high-quality exterior and interior lighting and related electrical design solutions, including motorways, roadways, public realm, ornamental, and feature lighting.
• Organizing meetings and presentations with prospective customers, lighting project managers, and lighting designers to promote project sales.
• Collaborated with architects, interior designers, and electrical contractors to integrate lighting solutions seamlessly into architectural designs.
• Managed project budgets, schedules, and resources to ensure timely and cost-effective project delivery.
• Conducted on-site inspections and quality checks to verify the proper installation and performance of lighting systems. 
• Preparation of technical reports, feasibility studies, concept designs, specifications, and contract documents.
• Experience of designing to British lighting and electrical standards (including BS5489, BSEN 13201, ILP guidelines and BS7671)
• Observe Health & Safety regulations and encourage others to do so.
