Summary

In summary I would describe myself as an energetic motivated individual, who strives to do the best job possible. I have always been someone who doesn't mind at all to work physically hard. And as a team mate I owe it to my peers to honor their effort by contributing my own. I love and am still fascinated by electrical theory and "where" it comes from. And "what" it is. I would feel very fortunate if I were able to work in an environment where I could achieve both things.
