In addition to main career knowledge, I am a very mechanically inclined individual.

It’s been a long time but also have experience driving fork-truck and hydraulic boom lifts. I have the ability to recognize safety work hazards and utilize safety precautions where applicable. Ability to initiate repair or stoppage of work if authorized until safety issues are resolved or addressed. Also capable of problem solving, have basic mathematical, and analytical skills and possess appropriate written and oral communication skills. I am a very fast learner of any task given me.
