Kalum Shashi Ishara I am an Aircraft Engineering graduate and an alumnus of Kingston University. It was a passion that I have had since childhood driven me to realise this goal of working in the Aviation and Aerospace industry.

My work experience involved both technical and managerial elements of Aircraft component manufacturing, Quality assurance and continuous improvement management.
