***************@*****.***
I’m an Industrial Maintenance Technician adept at welding, hydraulics, machining, electrical, plumbing, rebuild of rooms, framing, drywall, painting, however first and foremost I love being mechanically inclined. I am strict about my preventative maintenance when it comes to all of my machines. My strengths include but are not limited to; troubleshooting, blueprint reading, rebuilding & the re-installation of machines. I am not afraid to work long hours in a single day, or on a weekly basis. I Enjoy finding new ways to improve, not only, on the efficiency of the equipment but, as well as, on the production lines.
Recent Activities

Re constructed several walls, repaired plumbing and several other damages and repaired.
