Summary

Hardworking, reliable industrial electrician with a drive to learn everyday. With being an electrical contractor I have experience across many industries, so I can be versatile in adjusting to new working environments. I consider myself to be a very approachable person and can conduct myself in a professional manner. I pride myself in completing my work to a very high standard but can also perform well under constricted deadlines. Work well not only in a team but also under my own initiative.
