About
My professional background began in aerospace engineering, where I entered the industry through an apprenticeship with GE Aviation as an aircraft technician. Alongside hands-on technical work, I completed NVQ Levels 1, 2, and 3, a BTEC Diploma, and an HNC in Aerospace Engineering, developing a strong foundation in mechanical systems, documentation, and safety-critical processes.
In addition to aircraft maintenance and assembly, I worked in quality engineering roles supporting large commercial aerospace programmes, including the Airbus A350. I operated within highly regulated environments, working to ISO and AS/EN aerospace standards and completing First Article Inspections in line with AS9102 requirements.
These responsibilities included verifying part conformity, interpreting engineering drawings, validating measurement data, and ensuring full traceability across complex assemblies. I worked closely with production, engineering, and quality teams to resolve non-conformances and support corrective actions across multiple aircraft platforms.
I later transitioned into international education, beginning as a primary homeroom teacher before progressing into coordination roles, Head of Department positions, and ultimately senior leadership.
I currently serve as Head of Student Welfare at an international school, working at a systems and leadership level to support student wellbeing, pastoral structures, and cross-departmental processes. These roles strengthened my ability to work across technical and non-technical stakeholders, manage complexity, and design systems that function in real-world environments.
Alongside my leadership work in education, I completed an honours degree in computer science. My academic and independent projects focus on building software, data, and machine-learning systems — particularly in the EdTech and business analytics space — where clarity, reliability, and interpretability matter.
Across engineering, education, and software development, a consistent theme runs through my work: understanding complex systems, working to clear standards, and building solutions that are practical, explainable, and genuinely useful.
