Profile

Resolute and hardworking, I have achieved all A*'s in my A-levels: Physics, Mathematics, and Further Mathematics, alongside an A in AS Chemistry. I am looking forward to a challenging learning curve to jumpstart my career. My goal is to develop key skills to become an integral part of the team which constructs the sustainable aerospace sector of the future.

Experience & Achievements

  • Gold CREST Award Winner: Self-directed engineering project with C.K Tools, creating an electrician's tool vest and recycled power pack.
  • Engineering Site Visits: Conducted hands-on research and inductions at Wylfa Nuclear Power Station, Coleg Menai engineering labs, and Liverpool University Science Departments.
  • Lifeguard (Bangor Pool): Thriving in high-pressure environments, managing safety, handling customer complaints, and maintaining clear communication.
  • Manufacturing Competence: Skilled with belt sanders, vertical bandsaws, chainsaws, log splitters, and 3D printers for independent projects.

My Gap Year (2025/2026)

Over this time since my A-Levels have concluded, I decided to take a gap year to gain more experience in the engineering sector before fully committing. I will be attending work experiences with local companies (e.g., Paramount Waste, IAQ engineering) alongside working on my personal projects.

To broaden my personal development beyond education, I plan to do volunteering work abroad with Raleigh International or Camp Canada/America. This will help develop my teamwork, cultural appreciation, and a multifaceted skillset to make me a more well-rounded individual.
