Summary

I am a very positive and upbeat person, I love to get to know my colleagues and achieve the best for my peers in a team environment. I take pride building meaning and honest relationships with the my customers and clients I work with.

I have always had a strong passion for learning and developing new skills, I am always keen to learn something new and never shy away from a challenge.

Being a father of two, life has been a real journey and I have taken pride in bringing the best out in people with my positive attitude. It gives me real pleasure too see the people around me succeed and take real pride in their work.

Becoming a Train Driver would be a rewarding career that will enable me to help my community by having a positive impact on the lives of others. I feel this is my next step in my life career where I can bring my skills and experience and make a real difference to the people around me.
