Summary

At 24 years old, I am ready to transition from a rewarding career in the British Army where I served for over 6 years, obtaining valuable qualifications, licences, and experiences. Specialising in aviation and logistics during the past 6 years has allowed me to develop numerous transferable skills. As a supervisor, I honed my ability to teach and deliver information with precision and clarity. Building on this foundation, my goal now is to pursue a new career that will allow me to leverage my expertise and skills in a challenging and dynamic environment.
