Summary
With extensive experience in the maritime industry and most recently Oil and Gas construction, I have proved myself to be a capable, motivated and hardworking professional. My varied career experience, tickets and qualifications reflect the versatility and high standards I apply across all work tasks and my willingness to develop professionally within today’s demanding and progressive climate. Having served more than half my ten year tenure in the Royal Australian Navy at sea & my time in the construction industry doing fifo work, I am very familiar with working away from home, working within remote environments and have developed a strong safety culture.
