Summary
After a passionate and diverse career over 44 years including 20 years in agriculture and 21 years of business ownership I retired. The last two years has not been what I thought it would be. I'm looking forward to rejoining the workforce and very much appreciate the opportunity. With a proven history of dependability and punctuality coupled with a commitment to safety and quality would be a benefit to the Danfoss team.
