Summary

I'm an energetic individual, successful at motivating and building positive team dynamics to accomplish goals. Dedicated to open, communicative culture where maintainers feel empowered to contribute to Rio Tinto's success. I've been with Rio Tinto for over 15 years and have loved every bit of it. I am honest and hardworking and can work autonomously while following direction and up holding Rio Tinto's core values.
