Summary

From a young age, I've been driven by a passion for problem-solving and making a positive impact. At 13, I founded my lawn mowing business. Where I rode my bike, towing a trailer filled with equipment, around town to my clients houses. I took pride in my reliability, and my strong work ethic.

Volunteering at Puhi Peaks Station, and protecting endangered animals and honing my skills in equipment maintenance. My attention to detail has been crucial in ensuring the safety and efficiency of the machinery I work with, while my hands-on experience in a challenging environment has strengthened my problem-solving.

Now, I am keen to pursue a career into aircraft engineering, I believe my background of entrepreneurship, attention for detail, and to follow instructions and listen will contribute to my success in this new path.
