Summary

In addition to my formal employment, I spent every summer of my childhood working alongside my grandfather in his construction company. While I would never claim his level of expertise, that experience provided me with a strong foundation and hands-on exposure to multiple trades, including construction, grading, plumbing, electrical work, and basic HVAC.

During high school, I developed a strong interest in automotive mechanics and began pursuing it as both a trade and a passion. I completed every automotive course offered at Mitchell High School and went on to work for Stafford Automotive throughout my senior year. I continue to apply and expand these skills by assisting my brother in his business, Pressley Garage.

I take pride in being a dependable, hardworking individual with strong problem-solving skills and a genuine enjoyment of hands-on work. I value helping others and continually seek opportunities to grow and learn from those with greater experience in the trades.

Above all, I take my faith and relationship with my Savior seriously, which guides my commitment to integrity, honesty, dependability, and leading by example in both my professional and personal life.
