• I am a confident, outgoing and hardworking student currently at Lancaster Royal Grammar School, going into my final year of GCSEs. I was born in Lancaster and primary school educated at Greatwood Primary before coming to LRGS. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, particularly hiking, paddleboarding, running and going to the gym, along side the gym I have come to enjoy cooking. I am reliable, keen to learn, enjoy taking on new challenges and work well both independently and as part of a team.

I have completed my work experience at Heysham Nuclear Power Station, which included a tour around Heysham 2. I learned more about how the station operates and the important work carried out there.

I had previously been on a family tour around Heysham 1 several years ago, so it was interesting to return and experience the site again through my work experience.

Also completed the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge in 8 hours 35 minutes and the Cumbria Way in 5 days covering 73miles.
• I have completed my Bronze Duke of Edinburgh’s Award, which involved taking part in volunteering, physical activity, learning a new skill and completing an expedition. The experience helped me develop my confidence, teamwork and independence, while also pushing me outside of my comfort zone.
• Drama & Performance, Passionate about theatre, with experience performing on stage. Played Tiny Tim in A Christmas Carol at The Dukes Theatre in December 2023.
• In recent years, the gym has become a hobby of mine and alongside this I have been taking part in park runs and maintaining an active lifestyle. This has also developed my interest in healthy eating and learning to cook nutritious meals and following the vast recipes out there.
• One of my hobbies is collecting and building LEGO cars. I enjoy taking my time to carefully assemble each model and make sure every part is correctly placed. This has helped me develop patience, attention to detail and the ability to follow instructions and procedures accurately, which are important skills in the workplace.
