James Sheehan
LAKE INNES,NSW
Summary
My name is James & I am an dedicated father of two & a local to Port Macquarie. I have recently made the decision to make a career change from Electrician & Self Employed Handyman. I would ideally love to move into a role where I can be more passionate about what I do.
I have recently enrolled to complete my Certificate III in Individual Support at TAFE this year, have a Working With Children's check, a National Police check & current First Aid training under my belt. I also have an ABN, registered with NDIS & have all insurances organised.
I am a very easy going, friendly person who is always there for others.
