Summary
I am 24 years old and currently working as a commercial insurance broker for Gallagher Insurance and in 2022 I finished my commercial pilots license course at the International Aviation Academy of New Zealand. After finishing my CPL, I decided to have a short break from flying and pursue another passion of mine in sales & finance and took the job that i am currently in at Gallagher Insurance Brokers. Although I love this job and the oppurtunities it brings me, I am looking to head back in to the aviation industry. Outside of flying, I enjoy watching and playing sport as well as reading and spending time with friends.
