A-level student, licensed glider pilot, aspiring engineer — London
About
I'm a London-based A-level student, studying Physics, Maths and Economics, and a licensed glider pilot with a strong interest in engineering and aviation. I have broad, self-directed work experience across hospitality, childcare and teaching — I've waitressed in West London restaurants, run my own children's art club, and volunteered as a nursery childcare assistant. I'm a Mental Health Ambassador at Christ's School in Richmond, a SpaceCamp Aviation graduate, and a Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award holder.
