Summary

I have been working as a Mechanic shop technician since 17 years of age. Started as co-op student where I was promoted to general service employee, and eventually I earned a spot as a Technician II with Dallas ISD transportation services. I am eager to learn more while sharing my own skills and experience with the teams that I work with, while producing quality work.
