Primary Skills/Experience:

Mechanical Engineer for more than 20 years.I've mainly worked on cars, but my mechanical and troubleshooting skills are unmatched.I recently installed engines on all makes and models of cars and trucks.I have also installed transmissions, rear ends. Hook up all electrical components and make cars run like new when i was finished.I have done timing belts on all makes and models of cars and trucks. Intake gaskets, head gaskets,piston rings and complete overhauls on any type of motor.I can fix any part on a car also electrical components.I have hooked up scan tools to receive codes. Then use computer to tell what codes mean and most causes.Then pull up schematics and troubleshoot from there.I would use ohm meter,voltmeters, and ohms law to solve circuit problems.Some times even look at wave patterns on a scope to tell if there is a problem.I can also do ac repairs. I also do brakes and any suspension parts on all makes and models, along with alignments.I love to teach others as well as just my own accomplishments.I like working as a team,not just an individual.

Accomplishments

Have only went to school for electronics, all mechanical is god given talent and ability. I have learned alot from my uncle growing up on a farm.He was a diesel mechanic, and we fixed alot of tractors, and combines. I Learned many things at an early age.I raced stock cars for ten years, and was my only pit crew. I won many races after i figured out how to make it go around the track, I learn fast by watching others and applying what they found worked, I'm very smart when it comes to figuring out things that puzzle me.Competitive Analysis

Performed competitive analysis to make recommendations for future company growth.

Education

1994 Tampa Technical Institute Tampa, Florida

Associate of Science Electrical engineering

I was in my last semester of college, with a 4.0. I was ran over by a car as i was walking to work.It took me two years to learn to read and write again. I also had right leg torn off, and the doctors put it back together, I have full use, and can also run and carry 2 to 300 lbs with no problem.I did not get to graduate,but retained alot of knowledge after having to apply it to cars.
