Summary
I am 26 years of age, currently working in grounds work and landscaping, with a technical background as a vehicle technician at Jaguar and Landrover. While working in this field I placed third out of the UK of all apprentices to be chosen for an apprentice of the year for my hard work and commitments. I have since expanded my skills becoming an experienced engineer while working at DFZ Engineering. I am a hardworking and responsible individual, with strong aspirations in life. In addition to this I am conscientious and respectful of others and possess great time management and work ethics. I am a confident hard working self motivated individual with excellent communication skills.
I thrive on new challenges and fresh insights, as I am always looking to level up my skills.
