Summary

My training as a Fitter/Machinist has given me the skills and confidence to tackle any task with ease. Owning and operating my retail store, Produce & Pet Supplies, gave me customer service and care skills along with cash flow and management skills. Being in the building trade has given me a good base in all those associated trades.

Equipped with strong problem-solving abilities, willingness to learn, and excellent communication skills. Poised to contribute to team success and achieve positive results. Ready to tackle new challenges and advance organizational objectives with dedication and enthusiasm.
