Summary
I am an ambitious, motivated, and self aware individual who strives for success. I enjoy and take pride in providing quality work and motivating the people around me. Thanks to a career as a mechanic, I know how to work through tough problems and situations.
After a decade in the field as a mechanic, I have decided to venture off and sharpen my skillset with modern in demand computer skills. I am an aspiring software developer with a current focus on Front-End Development. Just like engines, I understand software languages and the technology used to write them are rapidly changing and require a constant and consistent learning approach.
