  I decided to join the Navy to see the world and gain a worthwhile career and having always been a fan of cooking decided i wanted to one day be involved in the Food Industry, so decided to train to be a Chef. After training and becoming a fully qualified Chef, I was lucky enough to be drafted to HMS Ark Royal, where I spent the majority of my Naval Career, catering for between over 600-1000 people on a daily basis, all whilst travelling the world and gaining alot of experience in cooking in sometimes very testing conditions.
