I joined the Royal Navy as an apprentice in 2001. I rose through the ranks to Petty Officer before being selected for commission in 2008 and going on to serve as a Commissioned Officer in the Engineering branch where I managed large teams of world class front line engineers on operations. I have now served my last day in the Royal Navy having completed 14 years of service. I have vast experience in operational engineering, diagnostics, repair, problems solving and management under very stressful conditions and have traveled to many parts of the world performing this task. My last position in the RN was fulfilling one of the Navy's training roles - training new recruits and preparing them for their future careers - an extremely demanding but rewarding job. On leaving the Royal Navy, I spent over 2 years working for BMT Defence Services Ltd. I was the Engineering Manager of a team of consultant engineers where we delivered engineering solutions to our MoD customer supporting In Service Submarines. I then spent 3 years working as a self-employed engineering consultant in the Nuclear sector specialising in decommissioning activities to support the Nuclear Decommissioning Agency's directives in the safe decommissioning of Nuclear Sites across the UK.In the last 18 months I have become involved in investing and trading both conventional stocks and shares as well as crypto currencies and projects, and have been given the opportunity to fulfil a role as Client Relations Manager for a Venture Capital firm - Marshland Capital. This is an exciting space with great opportunities to broaden horizons and skill sets, as well as meeting some incredible people across the globe.
