Summary

I am a 42-year-old metalworker with 22 years of experience in Italy, where I also completed a technical degree specializing in metalworking. Over the years, I have developed strong skills not only in metalworking but also in welding, carpentry, and general construction. This wide range of experience has made me a reliable and versatile tradesman, capable of handling different types of projects efficiently.

I am fluent in Italian and Albanian, and while my English is limited, I have a good understanding of it and can communicate well enough to carry out my work safely and effectively. I have been living in Australia for the past three years on a student visa and am now seeking opportunities where I can apply my skills and experience to contribute to a team or even by myself if anyone needs it and continue developing professionally.
