You cannot succeed at something you don't even try.

Summary

Although I have skills in the Mechanic profession. With a proven track record at Mark's CAR Shop LLC, I excelled in troubleshooting and maintenance, enhancing vehicle reliability and customer satisfaction. My leadership as Shop Owner improved operational efficiency by over 30%, while my hands-on skills and team management fostered a productive work environment. I can no longer perform those job skills. That is why I am currently seeking employment in other fields. I would like to be able to work from home on the computer and learn new skills that will allow me to excel and continue to provide the financial support I need to continue a productive lifestyle.
