Summary
Hello, my name is Dietrich Tilley. I have spent the last decade in the restaurant industry, from fast food and fine dining to bartending and catering, with the last few specifically as a pit master. While I love what I do, I'm very excited to branch out and learn something new. I have experience in painting, power and hand tools, and minor carpentry from helping my father's company, as well as experience with large trucks, vans, and heavy machinery.
