Summary
I am a very motivated individual, I love what I do. I work very well on my own or with a team. I've traveled for a total of nearly 8 years. Traveling consisted of me repairing and maintaining a small fleet of equipment anywhere from 10 to 30 pieces of equipment at a time. I like to stay busy, I'm very easy to get along with. I like anything that is going to test my knowledge. I am very good at what I do, I know quite a bit in my field and anything I don't know I will do whatever I can to figure it out.
