Summary

My entire working life, I have had to cater to and assist people with there wishes and be an elite problem solver. I am great with my hands. I also enjoy tracking down where something went wrong, then fixing the error. I am straight forward with my work and do my best to handle everything with efficiency. I guess you can say I am somewhat a perfectionist but I always do my best to get every job handled in a timely manner.
