I am Rayane Afanich, a motivated and dedicated person with a lifelong ambition to become a passenger pilot. I have built a strong foundation through my education, including completing the highest level of secondary education in the Netherlands (VWO) and an advanced physics program at Wismon, which strengthened my analytical and technical skills.
Through diverse work experiences, I have learned to take responsibility, work effectively in teams, manage tasks under pressure, and communicate clearly. These experiences have shaped me into a disciplined, detail-oriented, and proactive professional.
Driven by my passion for aviation, I am committed to continuous learning and improvement. Becoming a pilot is not just a career goal for me; it is a personal ambition to take on responsibility, make precise decisions, and contribute to the safety and satisfaction of passengers. I aim to grow into a competent, reliable, and professional pilot, ready to embrace every challenge along the way.

Performed detailed security checks inside aircraft cabins to ensure safety before each flight. Searched for prohibited or dangerous items, such as sharp objects or other risks to passengers and crew. Worked closely with a multicultural team, improving my communication in English and learning to stay focused under time pressure.

After nine months as a Cabin Search Agent, I was promoted to Team Captain, leading a team of security agents performing detailed aircraft inspections. I coordinated team tasks, monitored inspection accuracy, and ensured all aircraft were cleared efficiently and safely.
This role required strong leadership, multitasking, and decision-making, especially under time pressure. Working closely with the team, I learned to communicate clearly, manage people effectively, and maintain precision while staying efficient.
Daily work in the aviation environment strengthened my responsibility, teamwork, and situational awareness, qualities I continue to develop as I pursue my goal of becoming a professional pilot.
