Highly skilled A-Grade Electrician with a strong background in commercial construction. Completed apprenticeship in Auckland, New Zealand in 2004. Gained valuable experience on construction sites before embarking on a journey to Europe and the United States in 2006. Made the move to Ballarat in 2008 to be with wife, Michelle, whom I met while traveling overseas. Built a family with two children and recently completed a 15-month adventure traveling around Australia. Passionate about the construction industry and well-versed in industry standards and regulations. Enhanced skills by completing a Diploma in Project Management at the University of Ballarat in 2012. Most recently in a management role at MGA - a leading electronic security integration company, responsible for providing security solutions for Corrections Victoria (prisons).
I thrive in a team environment, building culture, respect and pride. Expertise lies in managing labor, meeting project milestones within specified timeframes, addressing risks and obstacles, and delivering high-quality outcomes in a safe and efficient manner. Approach, plan, and execute all aspects of work with precision. Eager to expand skill set and gain more experience, confident that motivation and dedication will make me a valuable asset to your organization's future projects.
