1. What drives you to wake up each morning and contribute your best to Airframe Designs?
I have always had a passion in aviation and design, this role combines both.
2. How do you kick-start your day?
A bowl of weetabix and a fun drive to work in my GTI.
3. What efforts are you making personally to help with climate change?
A few years ago I restored a 1967 classic mini, as a engineer I put my skills to repairing and reusing as much as possible to allow me to continue driving my 50+ year old car into the future, I am also looking into fueling it with sustainable fuels in the future to keep driving it for decades to come.
4. How do you prioritise and manage your mental and physical health?
I enjoy keeping busy, this includes playing the guitar which can be challenging when trying to learn a new song, and scale modeling which challenges me to create scaled down replicas of both aircraft/cars from scratch or kit and enter them in international competition, which gives me a great sense of accomplishment.
5. Of the four company values (Customer Focus, Team Work, Integrity, Innovation) which one do you consider most frequently?
Teamwork, being the most experienced apprentice I am always happy to help the younger apprentices to get them up to speed and understanding the ins and outs of CAD design.
6. Who is your favourite comedian?
Karl Pilkington, idiot abroad always had me in stitches.
