Summary

I completed my Cert III in Civil Construction at the Australian Institute of Trade in 2014, following which I dedicated five years to honing my skills in the trade. My journey then led me to serve in the Australian Defence Force (ADF) for 5.5 years.

Throughout my tenure in the ADF, I've undergone rigorous military training and demonstrated my leadership capabilities by attaining the rank of Corporal. My experience in high-risk work has equipped me with the skills to effectively manage and mitigate potential dangers inherent in various tasks. Additionally, my proficiency in cargo operations highlights my ability to coordinate the safe and efficient movement of goods, even in challenging and dynamic environments.

As I transition from full-time service, I am eager to reintegrate into the workforce while leveraging the valuable skills and experiences I've acquired both in the past and present. I am seeking a role in the construction industry where I can derive job satisfaction and continue to grow professionally, utilizing my diverse skill set to contribute meaningfully and advance within the field.
