Summary

With a broad career range from several years in the construction industry as a contract carpenter and business owner, contracting within multiple fields including Rail construction and maintenance, Formwork and steel fixing, fencing, bathroom/kitchen construction and internal fitout, I strive to excel in any and all fields that I am responsible for. With a proven record in contract carpentry and trade procurement and organization, great communication skills, plan interpretation and execution and ensuring works carried out are within Australian Industry Standards, maintaining budgets and problem solving being some of the few aspects of being a business owner and contractor in the construction industry. With a hunger to continuously learn and stay in touch with an ever evolving industry, I relish in the challenges that come with branching out and embarking on my next challenge and pride myself on my ability to learn quickly in real time.
