I am an Aircraft Engineering graduate and an alumnus of Kingston University. It was a passion that I have had since childhood driven me to realise this goal of working in the Aviation and Aerospace industry. I have been working in the industry for more than 13 years now, and I can easily identify most commercial aircraft by spotting them from a distance. My work experience involved both technical and managerial elements of Aircraft component manufacturing, Quality assurance and continuous improvement management.
