Summary

I'm a vision impaired 17 year old. I have lived and worked in many places in the South-West Victoria district. I've worked on farms and been around heavy duty machinery my whole life. I've also been around machinery, people and workers. I've worked on cars and pulled apart and put back together cars with my dad from when I could first pick up the tools. I've also had an interest in cars and Automotive. I've done things from small parts of cars to full engine replacements. I've grown up very quickly as I've had to due to life throwing curve balls at me, but I don't let this stop me. I lost my eyesight completely at age 14 and I've been dealing with it for about 3 years now, but don't think that stops me! I'm still perfectly capable of doing things myself! Once I learn something I remember it forever. My goal is to graduate with further education and training in Agriculture and Automotive. I have a strong work ethic and I'm a hard worker. The job isn't over until it's completed. I strive to learn new skills and improve my list of skill achievements. I work with a positive attitude and work well with others, but just as dwell by myself. Caring, loyal, honest are my 3 biggest values and morals.
