About

A driven and analytically minded A-Level student in Biology, Chemistry and Economics, working towards a career in engineering, with a strong secondary interest in finance. My engineering focus is demonstrated through hands-on technical work- including building my own PC from components Rolls-Royce industry simulations across non-destructive testing, machining and project management, and an offer to study at the University of Nottingham's Faculty of Engineering. I pair this with solid commercial awareness developed through finance simulations with Bank of America, KPMG and Barclays.

Combining scientific rigour, technical curiosity and a reliable work ethic, I am eager to apply my problem-solving and analytical skills in engineering.
