James Richard

West Islip,New York

Summary

My name is James Richard, I am 20 years old and to be completely honest my heart is set on the automotive industry, although I am seeking mostly trades and maybe an apprenticeship. On the side as of right now I am currently in a project with a ford motor. Needless to say I love engines/cars and I am seeking to work with them day to day, I pride myself in work-ethic and enthusiasm to get the job done the right way no matter what it takes, I am as open to learning as anyone can be, I am always willing to engage, Be apart of a team and prove that I have something to offer at the end of the day. I am looking to indulge into a trade within the next 6 months, I also pride myself in how focused I become when I am set to complete a specific task, I always go above and beyond, I'm always moving and always finding something to do
