Summary

An highly experienced and diverse electrician that has worked across multiple industries and developed multiple skills along the way. In the current industry i work in the deadlines are extremely tight and the clients expectations are nothing less than perfection which i believe this to make me an excellent candidate. My biggest weakness is that i care too much about the work i produce, which sometimes leads me to go above and beyond expectations.
