Summary

I have extensive knowledge of the New Zealand building industry, I am a Trade Qualified Builder, and trained, experienced Project manager

I also have my site 2 License, this is currently on hold as it was not required for my most recent career path.

I take my work seriously and put concentrated effort into whatever work I undertake, endeavoring to stay ahead with any tasks and challenges that are presented. Although I enjoy working in a team situation I am also comfortable working independently.

I actively seek areas for personal growth in my skill base and am willing to reinvest what I learn back into the work environment. I appreciate the opportunity to contribute ideas and initiatives.

My previous experience has mainly been in the Project Management, Construction and Landscaping industries. However, I am always keen to learn new skills in a new occupation.
