Summary
Adept at transforming challenges into solutions, my tenure at W-steel and Grinding highlighted my proficiency in welding and critical thinking. Skilled in both structural welding and fostering teamwork, I've significantly enhanced operational efficiency. My approach, characterized by meticulous attention to detail and innovative problem-solving, consistently exceeds employer expectations.
As a handyman with my brother at Herrera's painting I have learned quickly as my hand skills and the use of many tools has helped me to develop in a wide range of house repairs and installation of water heaters, toilets, sinks, all types of appliances, light fixtures, floors and currently learning tile and stocco as a way to expand my opportunities.
