Summary

I am passionate about all aspects of engineering and technical work, and have past experience of working within an engineering environment. During my previous employment, I was on the production lines as part of the planned maintenance team performing technical tasks on various machines. This is where I gained some experience in electrical testing and competency in diagnosing issues with machinery within a factory environment. My previous employment has helped me to gain the ability to think tasks through in an efficient manner and work under my own initiative or alternatively within part of a team. I have a creative mind, and this helps with my ability to learn quickly, and it's also a reason why I'm so interested in engineering.
