Born in 1987 on July 21st in Scarborough, ON.
Objective: To produce quickly and effectively in a manner that turns high profits for those who have contributed to the overhead of any trade-related project in which I am a vital part of. I work to an accuracy which is necessary to achieve desired results. For Machine work that is to the thousandth of an inch. 1/32nd or 1/16th for finish work and mill-wright applications, 1/8th or quarter inch for rough work calculations. I am versed in the Metric system as well, and can be considered a Geometry expert. My mission is to be the best possible tradesman, while providing myself protective equipment to ensure a long career, well into my old age. I do not see retirement as a viable option in the present economic climate. I am highly opposed to the use of employment insurance, or various other government
“handouts” which seem to have become the standard in this area’s demographic. Thank you.
