OBJECTIVE:
Seeking a position that will harness my experience and allow me to grow with your company. I am willing to take on new challenges presented while performing accurately and efficiently. In eight years in the Navy I became an expert on different types of technical and trade jobs. For example, I have been a Launch and Recovery Specialist, an Aviation Structural Mechanic and a Hydraulic Technician. I have a superb work ethic and I am perfectionist in not only doing the job but getting it done correctly. For my hard work in the Navy I was awarded Launch and Recovery Specialist of the Quarter three times. I have worked well with a diverse group of individuals and I also have trained many new employees how to properly setup/operate tube bending machines. I believe I would be perfect for the job with my knowledge and experience. I hope you strongly consider me for the position.
