Summary

I started out in the engineering industry from 2007. I am equipped with a large range of my own tooling (hand tools, battery gear, welders etc.) Problem solving and thinking outside the box on site/ in the workshop has always been a strong suit of mine along with organizing people and projects. The pride I put into a project that I am apart of is second to none.

I am currently in search of a workplace I can be apart of and grow with for the foreseeable future.
