Summary

I’ve been working in the automotive industry since I graduated high school with my certificates in automotive mechanics. I have been DOT certified for every job I’ve held an acquired since graduating. While at the fix and go company I was in an accident while on a road call involving a drunk driver hitting my service truck and myself. I was out of the field for awhile and ultimately left that company to work at keystone fireworks while waiting for my body to fully recover. After wards I got a tire technician position at rice tire and had been there for 3 years. I moved to Pennsylvania in December of 2024 and had gotten the mechanic job at Murray’s due to the location and short distance/ travel time it took to get there and back home.
