Im a motivated learner and willing to use, learn and utilize new knowledge to perform at the best of my ability. if given the opportunity id like to be part of your service mechanics or parts desk to put these skills to work.
I am a goal-oriented Industrial Electrician with sound knowledge of circuit management and power distribution. Over 8 years of experience in the industrial electrical installation field. Organized and hardworking. Easy to cooperate with clients in diverse industries.
