Experience

I am a former Royal Marines Commando and joined the corps in 2003. During my time in the Marines, I served 2 years in a Armed Forces Careers office where I trained potential candidates to pass the PRMC (Potential Royal Marines Course). I was able to raise the pass rate from 44% to 100% during my time.

As a fitness lover, I continued my career helping other achieve their goals and have worked around Europe doing so.

I joined MPCT to help contribute my skills and experience to further develop young adults into a military career or for their future employment.
