Summary
I was most recently the maintenance manager with Mayhew Bestway in Ormond beach Fl, until they closed in March of this year. I have a full range of skills from Automotive/ Diesel Mechanic to Facilities Maintenance.

I have experience in Industrial maintenance, Tractor trailers, Automotive and motorcycle repair/maintenance as well. I have current and previous management experience as well. I'm mechanically inclined and I can trouble shoot. I have my own tools, and I've worked on cars and Motorcycles on the side for the last 10 years or so, also do small engine repair from time to time.
