Summary
Hey, I'm Arion Mcpherson. I'm a graduate welder that's going into combination welding/fitting. And also I’m a guy who likes to weld and I’m looking for a career with stability for me to provide for my family. I'm always looking for ways to increase my skills to be better than I was yesterday. I also want a career with a long term relationship/benefits with the company and possibly put everyone in the position to excel. And if able to relocate with the company or travel I would love to do that. I’m an multi- tasked person who does well under pressure and has great people and leadership skills. I would be a great asset to your company because I believe in learning new things and stepping out of my comfort zone to increase my work experience. 3
