Summary
Highly motivated and hardworking individual with a high driven work ethic who is always striving to do better and learn how to
further myself more into a leadership role for my coworkers. I am a quick thinker who is always trying to find the safest and
efficient way to complete tasks of any size. I have developed myself into a leadership role for my peers as someone they follow
after and like to have around. I bring high morale to any jobsite and work very well in team settings. I am very mechanically
inclined and have completed multiple gas and diesel engine teardowns. I would say my biggest weakness is second guessing
myself and questioning wether something seems right or not. I have many certifications and training completions with TVA
which will be attached. References upon request.
