I have experience in many areas of manufacturing and Fabrication. I am knowledgeable of computer systems. I have experience using all sort of tools and measurement devices and have learned a lot about electronics. I am very mechanically inclined and am a problem solver. When in a position of leadership you will find me right there in the trench helping and doing my part just as I would in a non leadership role. I work hard and love to learn new things. I may have learned a lot but I always keep an open mind. I played team sports in school, football ball and swim. I always bring my best to the table and utilize my various areas of experiences to help achieve goals. My goals are currently to learn more about Psychology, sociology and anthropology. I am currently working towards a career in SUD treatment.
