I had a variety of roles whilst with the Armed Forces. I was part of 33 Signal Regiment 59 Signal Squadron. I started my trade as an Electrician Driver which I gained my class 2 certification in the trade. During operational tours such as Op Herrick 8 in Afghanistan I was a Saxon Commander which involved being out on the ground and taking charge in details which involved ensuring the safety of others which could range from 4 to 32 fellow colleagues. I was the Physical Training Instructor for the regiment and various squadrons from 2007 to 2012. This would involve lesson design and planning including health and safety reports. I would also carry out physical fitness tests for all ranks.
