Summary

I’m a detail-oriented individual with a strong focus on customer service and safety compliance. I’ve worked with various power tools and hand tools over the years, now being a homeowner and having the freedom to do home projects and renovations, I’ve discovered I love “playing” with tools, whether fixing something or building and installing. After spending 16 years working in a nursing home, I’m quite desensitized to awful smells or being in contact with gross materials. I have been wanting to make a career change and get into one of the trades for sometime now. After doing some research and talking to people in the trades, plumbing seems a good match for me and I am beyond excited to learn and excel at this career!

We program our own lights and I’m the one that takes on the roll of getting them all strung up in an organized manner on a crowded stage that more resembles a jungle with all the mess of cables already present.
