Summary
With almost 10 years in the Automotive Field as a Technician and an Instructor for Stellantis, I have gained the knowledge and experience to effectively assist in troubleshooting problem vehicles in the shop by use of Witech data, scope readings, and related symptoms. I enjoy spending extra time with technicians discussing issues they have come across in the shop and propose helpful solutions to direct them in the right path for proper repairs on Stellantis vehicles. I have enhanced my skills as an instructor in Word, Excel Spread Sheet and other software systems. I am driven to continue my education and have taken advantage of the Stellantis program for Degrees at Work, pursing a bachelors in business management with the intent on moving into management positions. My specialty is critical thinking and solving problems when they arise in class on vehicles or components. I not only problem solve, but teach technicians the importance of being versatile and problem solve on their own as well.
