Amanda Hyslop, M.A.Sc., E.I.T. is a junior geological engineer with experience in rockmass characterization and assessment, geotechnical and structural field data collection, and soil and rock laboratory testing. Furthermore, she is a certified drone pilot with over 250 hours of flying time. Ms. Hyslop received her M.A.Sc. at Queen’s University, where she focused on evaluating the geomechanical behaviour of sea stack formations at the Hopewell Rocks Provincial Park by UAV based photography, 3D photogrammetry models, and numerical modelling. Ms. Hyslop is a registered engineer-in-training with the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of New Brunswick (APEGNB).
