Summary

Dedicated and driven tree arborist with nearly three years of hands-on experience in the arboriculture industry. Since completing my year 12 education in 2018, I have honed my skills and expertise in tree care operations, now seeking to leverage my skills and knowledge in a new role as an electrical linesman. I have strong work ethic, attention to detail, and a commitment to safety. My transition to pursuing an electrical apprenticeship reflects my passion for learning and expanding my skill set in high-demand technical fields. I am eager to apply my ability to work at heights, my proficiency in equipment operation, and my teamwork skills to contribute effectively to your team. I am prepared to bring dedication, reliability, and a proactive approach.
