I’m a skilled Tesla technician who takes pride in doing high-quality work, often going beyond my current level. I’ve worked on many advanced repairs and systems, including handling the high-voltage (HV) battery, replacing windshields, and setting up the Driver Assistance System (DAS). I also know how to fix small structural parts like replacing the lower wing bracket and lower extension on Model Y vehicles using factory specs and repair guides.

I’m very comfortable using Tesla’s Toolbox platform and keep learning every day. I often talk to Trey Compton (FTS) when I’m stuck, but I’ve been working hard to solve problems on my own. I use sandbox tools, technical articles, and real-world practice to figure things out before asking for help. Over time, I’ve been opening fewer Toolbox sessions and solving more issues by myself.

I follow all safety rules and make sure every repair is done right. I check parts before installing them, use repair tracking systems to keep things organized, and double-check my work to meet Tesla’s high standards. I also help train newer techs by sharing what I’ve learned about body repairs, tools, and repair steps.

I’m good at reading service manuals, finding the right parts, and making sure everything fits and works correctly. I take ownership of my work and always aim to do it right the first time.

I’m not just doing my job I’m growing, learning, and helping the team get better. I’m ready to take on more responsibility and keep improving.

• While working at Home Goods, I've gained valuable experience in various roles. As a cashier, I honed my customer service skills, learning to handle diverse situations. Additionally, my time on the floor stocking shelves and moving furniture has provided me with a strong work ethic and attention to detail.
