Summary

I am a skilled tradesperson with a background in cabinet making, known for my strong eye for detail and commitment to perfection in every project. With hands on experience in both workshop and administration roles, I have also worked in the building industry as a estimator and contracts administrator, giving me a well rounded understanding of construction processes from planning to execution. I take great pride in my ability to trouble shoot and fix anything - bringing practical solutions, craftsmanship, and a problem solving mindset to every task I undertake.
