I love tennis because it's a sport for everyone: men and women, young and old, able-bodied and disabled people worldwide. As a sports engineer, my role involved studying the engineering of tennis rackets, balls, the court, and how players interact with their kit to keep the game fair and accessible.
Sports engineering means I work with cutting-edge technology while being practical and creative. I love that my research can influence a global game.

At age 10, I switched on the TV and started watching Top Gear. I thought supercars were super cool, read up more about them and became a bit of a car geek. Now, I look after the body panels on Aston Martins, and make sure they're top quality.
At the age of 16, I joined the apprentice scheme at Aston Martin and got to work in every area of production. I finished my apprenticeship with a BTEC Level Three in Manufacturing Engineering and an NVQ Level 3 in Engineering. One of the things I really liked about the engineering apprenticeship was the amount of responsibility I was given, which gave me opportunities to hold meetings with directors, take on new challenges such as leading large teams, and sometimes even drive the cars.
