The 2024 Alfred Leung Award has gone to Michaela Martin, who works for Ameon.
Having joined the company as an administrative assistant nine years ago, Martin developed an affinity with the industry and is now in the first year of a building services engineering degree at the University of Central Lancashire.
The Alfred Leung Award was created by the CIBSE Merseyside and North Wales committee, in honour of Dr Alfred Leung, to recognise the academic achievement of aspiring building services students at the City of Liverpool College, where Alfred was a lecturer. Martin was nominated for her outstanding academic achievement in 2022/23, and received a £150 bursary.
Leung joined the CIBSE Merseyside and North Wales Regional Committee in 2003 and made a significant contribution to its activities in the following 17 years. He was a respected mentor, who pursued professional excellence throughout his career, as well as an ambassador for and passionate leader of the building engineering services industry and CIBSE.
