Summary
With a natural inclination towards precision and a strong focus on quality, I consistently exhibit a high attention to detail and workmanship and strive to be and do better every day. I was a general farm hand and assistant farmhand manager for 4 years until I decided to chase my passion of being a welder, I have been welding full time now for close to two years after I finished a 30 week welding course.
