Summary

I am currently undertaking the critical steps to transition into the Engineering industry with my completion of Certificate II in Engineering, and 4 months work experience. I want to make my dream of becoming a Fitter & Turner/Machinist morph into reality, and I will climb any mountain, or learn any skill to make this happen. I have always had a keen interest in Engineering, and working on the tools, constantly expanding my knowledge with simple things like working on home projects, or watching in-depth videos on highly scaled, global Engineering projects. Analytical, confident, and detail-oriented. These are the 3 defining features of who Zachary is. I pride myself in maintaining composure no matter what the situation may be, always keeping my head high, ready for anything.
