Tyler Collins
Welding Student At Wake Tech
Apex,North Carolina
Summary
My goal is to find a part time position where I will get the opportunity to learn more about welding and manufacturing, whilst also growing a knowledge of welding commercially. I achieved the rank of Eagle Scout in spring of 2023, I wrestled all four years of high school, and have been managing a small lawn care business for over 6 years. I graduated my high school as a Cum Laude and received a certificate of completion for my graduation from the Academy of Engineering. I also have recently earned my OSHA 10-hour certificate. Through all of these experiences, I have learned the importance of hard work and effective leadership, the value in self-motivation and constructive teamwork, and lastly the ability to solve problems and improvise in unexpected situations to make the most of what I am allotted and maintain productivity.
