Episode 62 is out today with guest Nordia King!
A native of Trinidad and Tobago, Nordia moved to Brooklyn, N.Y at a young age. Having dreams of being a Flight Attendant but not knowing how to break into the industry, Nordia attended university where she completed her Bachelor's in Forensic Psychology while working as a gate agent. During her final year of school, she was able to join her employer's inflight team. It was during her time as a Flight Attendant that Nordia fell in love with maintenance, however it was not until Nordia moved to Canada where she pursued her education in Aircraft Maintenance. A recent graduate of Centennial College, Nordia is now an AME Apprentice at Jazz Aviation working towards her M2 licence. Nordia uses her platform to amplify the voices of women in the industry. She volunteers with various organizations including Elevate Aviation and the Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Association of Ontario when she is not spending time with her husband and three children.
