Summary
I strive to be the best I can be. And I strive to do the best job I can do on anything that I work on. I hold myself at a high standard and take pride in my work. I’m looking to retire from pilgrims and want to learn all I can about the maintenance department and help improve. If given the opportunity to be supervisor I will put my all into it and look forward to learning all I can and will lead my group with the most highest and professional standard.
Proven professional with exceptional record of strategic approaches to indicate operational efficiency with machines and equipment in plants. Expert knowledge with adjusting system components or removing and replacing defective parts.
