DUSTIN BRANCH
Haslet,Texas
Summary
I have a lot of experience as a mechanic from my time in the military as well as my time at Holt. The military taught me how to be a professional leader and efficient follower. I used all that experience as an operations manager. My favorite part of my day is looking back at a job well done, with a feeling of pride.
