    I live on my own in West London, and enjoy getting out on my bike, and taking pictures with my SLR. I have a passion to travel; this year alone, I have been to Barcelona, Toulouse, all over Japan, and planning my next trip to Cappadoccia in Turkey end of November.

    I’m generally an outgoing person but I do love my TV, right now I’m following The Great British Bake Off and The Apprentice, but South Park is the one for any dull day.

    I’m a specialist for RAIM, which stands for Receiver autonomous integrity monitoring. RAIM is used to predict the availability of GPS in any given location. So in aviation, it’s used to help pilots navigate using GPS.

    My role, involves setting up the customers on our software, training them on how to use it and finally supporting them with any day to day issues that may occur.

    Everyday is different, which is why i enjoy my job. Generally, I get into work by 8am, I have to work through a series of support tasks; this can be a range of things from, forgotten passwords (boring!!) to system not working. I may also have to set up new customers and attend meetings about growing the product. I travel often, usually to meet customers who require training, this gets me meeting customers which I love, and I always make sure I have time to do a little sightseeing too. I’m also involved in our companies social committee, because yes, work should be fun! We spend more time at work than anywhere else, so every month we have an event of some sort, which I need to arrange with the help of 5 other members.
