About

My name is Richard Nunez jr Born in Abilene, TX. FEB 12, 2000 My line of work has always been hands on and safety is my biggest passion. When helping people no matter how little or stressful the job was always kept a good head on my shoulders and made sure it was done correctly, safely, and promptly. Perfection is my only way of feeling secure within myself to know the job was done right and that went with any type of job I had done. As a master in Teamwork and Team building, ive never had an issue with not being able to getting along with higher enlisted nor fellow conglomerates. Ive always been the person to go to for help without hesitation and teaching no matter the conditions. My Skills I have acquired are from a long line of hard work and hours within deployments and hands on experience on and off the motorpool without supervision. Day to day good practices kept me efficient at my job and I always made safety the very first step to ensure the job was getting done and at a timely manner. I joined the military in 2020 and it was the best decision Ive made to help better my life and provide for my family. Im married and A father of 2 amazing boys, I believe in being the hard worker of the team to carry and help the team with my troubleshooting and problem solving skills. I am highly efficient at my job and I will continue to obtain this ability  with my hard work.
