Roma Agrawal MBE (Mega Badass Engineer), is an award-winning engineer, author and broadcaster. From footbridges and sculptures, to train stations and skyscrapers – including The Shard – she has left an indelible mark on London’s landscape during her 15-year career in construction. She is an inspiring promoter of engineering and technical careers to young people, particularly underrepresented groups.
As an engineering storyteller, Roma presents documentaries, hosts the podcast Building Stories, and is now excited to be writing her third book about engineering, Nuts & Bolts, which will be out in 2023. Her first book Built: The Hidden Stories Behind our Structures was published to glowing reviews in 2018, and her children's book How Was That Built? is out this year.
