Azrie was a summer intern for ViaStrada during 2023/24.
Azrie is joining us as a Transportation engineering intern where he will be focusing on fieldwork, surveys, data analysis alongside helping to update transport policies and tools. Azrie has just recently finished his studies in the University of Auckland where he conducted his final research project on ‘Understanding mode choices of New Zealanders - Can we make more sustainable travel?’ He found that company vehicle ownership played a major role in encouraging kiwis to use private vehicles. Azrie is passionate about making transportation more sustainable through technology, innovation and education.
Born in Malaysia and raised in Auckland, Azrie loves to photograph people to capture their achievements and passions. He has photographed multiple local kiwi artists that are now travelling the world to pursue music including Christchurch's local gem; "There's a Tuesday". He loves capturing beautiful moments such as weddings, graduation ceremonies and sports events where people are in their element to stand through time and help make them shine.
