Summary

I have learned the trade of construction and how to be proficient with labor work such as carpentry and construction, installing cabinets and flooring for new homes and renovations. Along with learning the trade of construction, I’ve learned what is acceptable for a residential inspector and what quality of work would be approved. I have three years of retail associate experience as well. I have learned to work under pressure; to be as precise, safe, respectful, and detailed as possible with not just myself but others as well. I have learned from taking direction to being able to give direction to others as in my co-workers.
