Summary

I'm a determined and heavily ambitious worker, I have always put my hand up for the next step and have taken steps early on in my career. I began supervising job sites as a 19 year old, 2nd year apprentice because I wanted to push for the next step in my career, since then I have grown a large interest in property investment and finances in general. I am a hardworking and collaborative site supervisor/ tradesman with talents in Carpentry and Joinery. Experienced in commercial construction and known for safely and effectively completing tasks on a mixture of high demand bank projects, including banks worth over $1.2m and RSL/ club fit outs worth over $5.5m Respectful, punctual employee with ability to multitask. I have 2 Cert 3 qualifications (carpentry and joinery). I also have my MR truck license, working at heights card, yellow card, asbestos awareness. I have worked interstate and away from home a lot and am more than willing to do so in the future if my next job opportunity requires it.
