Summary
. I maybe a field hand but, I plan to further my learning experience and ability beyond just being in the field. I am hardworking, willing, and capable of learning new things. I'm well versed and skilled in a way that allows me to pickup on things at a faster pace. My goal is to be able to pursue a position outside of the field and be able to excell in a position beyond just hand tools and workbooks but, to showcase my understanding of the pipefitting, systems, and blueprint drawings outside of the field and to prove that I am still qualified to do so.
