Summary

Motivated and hands on professional with a strong foundation in both practical construction and academic study. With four years of experience as a roofer, I developed a deep understanding of building structure, compliance, and on-site safety skills that directly support a move into building control. My background in law and combined science gives me a solid base for understanding regulations and technical detail. Currently working as a fitness instructor, I bring discipline, excellent communication and a strong work ethic to every role. CSCS certified and eager to progress into the building control sector where I can combine my practical expertise and academic knowledge to support safe and compliant construction.
