"I feel that as an instructor I not only teach my students the fundamentals of flying but also cultivate a passion for aviation. I believe that a student’s progress is a direct reflection on my own ability and I try my best to provide students with as much knowledge and skill as I can so that they can one day progress to be top class pilots. Flying is not only my passion but my way of life and teaching other people to fly truly inspires me to keep flying and learning so that I will always provide the highest form of aviation training to my students."

"A student’s progress is as important to me as my own. In my opinion, a student’s performance is a direct indication of both the instructors and schools ability to operate a successful and professional system. It’s because of this that I as well as the rest of the U-FLY instructors go to all lengths to ensure success in the student not only being competent but a professional pilot in the making. My career goal is to be a successful and respected airline captain, to pass on all knowledge and expertise gained throughout my flying career. I’m a person with extreme drive to excel in every field I partake. I don’t fly to live but live to fly!"

Flying is not only my passion but my way of life and teaching other people to fly truly inspires me to keep flying and learning so that I will always provide the highest form of aviation training to my students."FOR MOST PEOPLE THE SKY IS THE LIMIT FOR PILOTS ITS HOME."

"From a very young age I was intrigued and passionate with airplanes and how they fly. It was from then I decided to pursue my career in aviation and as a pilot! I have been in the aviation industry since 2006; I find it very exciting and challenging! As a Flight Instructor I believe a high standard of training should be maintained at all times and that you should strive to be your very best as a pilot."

"After tripping into the world of aviation in 2011 my life has never been the same. I obtained my PPL in 2012 and my CPL in 2013 at AIFA's George base. Aviation requires a lot of patience and determination especially for women in the end. I am keen on encouraging women to join this field."
