Summary

  • I aim to utilise my skillset and qualities developed from past experiences to carry out exceptional work for the team whilst also expanding my knowledge on the world of Engineering. The world of engineering has always been a passion of mine hence why I strive to be a motivated individual with a strong work ethic that can be displayed. My hardworking ethic can be seen through my strong academic record along with the ability to take on challenging assignments individually or as a collaborative team.


  • Leadership qualities, teamwork and the ability to carry out tasks efficiently and effectively is crucial in the working environment. Being interviewed then accepted into the University Air Squadron in association with the RAF during my time at University and holding the title Officer Cadet for two years was one of the best ways to hone these skills on a regular basis.
