General Aviation is my passion. One of the main reasons I love this area of the industry so much is the variety, and the different facets of aviation you can explore. After a few years of flying helicopters and building some hours I wanted to improve my airmanship, and explore other areas of aviation.
I attained my helicopter private pilots licence at 19 after falling in love with flying. In 2020, I had my first fixed wing trial lesson. I was extremely lucky with my fixed wing training and had an incredible instructor, and mentor. I passed my PPL (A) in 2022, almost 4 years to the day after attaining my helicopter licence.
I have been incredibly fortunate in my journey into aviation, and I am very grateful for the opportunities I have had. Therefore, I want to use this in a positive way to help the aviation industry wherever I can, particular in the area of encouraging young people and women into the industry.
In 2021 I became a Department for Transport Aviation Ambassador, and had the opportunity to work with some incredibly inspiring people and get involved in important projects during my 2 year term. I have worked with UN Women UK as a CSW68 delegate.
In 2023 I launched Elevate(her) Aviation and my goal for the future is to support, and encourage more women and young people into aviation wherever I can. Whether it is to fly commercially, be an engineer or air traffic controller or simply to fly because it is your passion.
