  • 2001 - 2002

  I began working for Evans Cycles as a sales assistant at a store in Waterloo, central London and then progressed to workshop manager after demonstrating my passion for mechanics. Later I was moved to a dedicated servicing store in Greys, north London, due to my exceptional mechanical skills and high attention to detail in my work. Unfortunately the cost of living in London was high and the salary was too low to sustain any practical long term employment.
