I am very conscientious and a good listener. I am reliable and am always punctual for class and appointments. I am self-motivating, I enjoy working independently and in small groups, I enjoy being part of a larger organisation and following organisational systems. I have a good work ethic and I am kind, thoughtful and like to help people. I am currently studying Level 3 Aviation Operations at Trafford College studying units such as Principles of Flight, Health and Safety, Airfield Operations and more. From a very young age I have always had a keen interest in aviation and airport operations, this passion has enabled me to grow my skills and become knowledgeable in all aspects of the aviation industry.
I currently work as a Passenger Service Agent for Dnata at Manchester Airport providing customer service for the most reputable and safest handling agent in the world. This company provide customer service for world class airlines such as Emirates, Qatar Airways, Etihad, Hainan Airlines, Lufthansa and learning some of the best qualities for customer service that make these airlines the highest rated. This job role has taught me teamwork, problem solving in sorting customers problems as well as responsibility, efficiency when working as part of my team and upholding Dnata's safety and high customer service standards.
I am currently part of the Manchester Airport Youth Forum for the Manchester Airport Group giving suggestions on current aviation issues that the airport faces. This involves giving my youthful perspective on noise abatement flight plan procedures, more sustainable aviation solutions such as SAF, Hydrogen aircraft, how the airport can cut down on its carbon emissions and more. Being on the forefront of change for the 3rd biggest airport in Britain has given me increased insight into the industry and issues that not only Manchester Airport faces but airports across the globe.
I was selected by British Airway's Emerging Talent department to be part of a group of 6 people out of thousands who applied to visit their British Airways City Flyer Office in East Didsbury, Manchester giving me insights into the brand identity and customer service expectations and skills of a world class flag carrier airline. British Airways also gave me experience in their complex systems and management of their daily operations which ensure aircraft depart as scheduled.
I worked in multiple aspects of the business including customer service helping people with booking coach tickets and directing confused passengers. I also got an insight into the operations side involving how the coaches avoid traffic and how the coach station staff communicate to the drivers. This gave me experience in a role involving the travel and tourism industry, customer service and logistics which are transferable to other roles and jobs. I got experience in a working environment and working in a team which supported all members and worked productively. 19th – 23rd February 2024.

10 Hour future pilots programme
(Virtual Aerospace Flight Simulators | 12th August 2021)
I was a part of the 10 hours future pilots programme which gave me the opportunity to increase my knowledge inside the cockpit and how pilots organise systems onboard a Boeing 737 simulator. In this experience, I got to sharpen my simulator skills when managing crosswinds, challenging approaches like Kai Tak, landing the aircraft, taking off and many more. Flight simulation is a hobby of mine with about 3000 flying hours, with some of those being on VATSIM, so I was very grateful to sharpen my skills and learn from a former B737 captain regarding the real procedures and order of actions in the cockpit.
