In January 2024, I embarked not only on my first job in a new career, but also on a level 4 apprenticeship as a Quality Engineer. Fast forward to June 2025 and I received the email I had been waiting for...

"Congratulation, you have passed with distinction!"

What I have experienced over the last 500+ days has been nothing short of incredible! The learning curve has been steep and there have been setbacks, but it has all been worth it! I love my job and appreciate the opportunities it’s given me. I have met some incredible people from the community along the way. I have found my place, my tribe.

In the words of the brilliant Ben Dowen, this is my origin story. I cannot wait to get start on the next chapter of this great adventure. Watch. This. Space.
