Summary

I am a hardworking and reliable woodworker with nearly nine years of hands-on experience in furniture making and interior woodworking. I trained from Level 1 through to Level 3 at Bridgwater College and completed a Level 2 apprenticeship. I am confident using power tools and machinery safely, working accurately to measurements, and applying quality finishes. I take pride in producing high-standard work and can work well both independently and as part of a team.

Outside of work, I enjoy running and competing in endurance events, which reflect my determination and strong work ethic. I am also a keen sports fan, particularly football, and value teamwork and being part of a community.
