Summary

I began my career as a qualified plumber in Ireland before relocating to Australia, where I joined Sydney’s NRT Railway project in 2017. It was there that I discovered a strong interest in concrete structures, prompting me to pursue a Certificate III in Carpentry to broaden my skillset. Over the past seven years, I have gained extensive experience in assembling formwork systems and am highly proficient in reading and interpreting drawings, ensuring precise measurements and layouts. I take pride in producing high-quality work with a strong focus on detail and job site safety. Equipped with a full range of hand and power tools and reliable transport, I am well-prepared to complete tasks efficiently and meet project deadlines.
