Summary
I am a qualified Auto Mechanic, with over 10 years of knowledge and experience in the field. I have been promoted to various senior positions within my workplace as a result of the abundance of skills and passion I bring to the team.
While I have strong admiration for what I do, I have found myself taking an interest in electrics over the recent years. I would love to learn to install, repair, and maintain electrical fixtures, outlets and wiring. I know that becoming an electrician will open the door to growth for me. I will learn yet another skill, that will lead to so many opportunities and pathways that will result in a rewarding and forever developing career for me.
My employer will have my undivided attention from the moment I commence my new role and my commitment to learn and progress will be evident through my hard work.
