Professional summary
I am a highly motivated self-starter who brings a combination of technical experience and education to any workplace.
• During my time in the Navy as an air crewman and jet engine mechanic, I learned and embraced the importance of quality control, professionalism, team work, and technical knowledge.
• My pursuit of my bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering, and my subsequent employment as a service engineer, fostered and honed: my research skills; creative problem solving skills; the ability to solicit and provide relevant feedback; and multitasking abilities.
• My master’s degree in management, together with my experience as a project engineer, have instilled in me the need for, and value of: quality communication among all parties involved in any project; thorough planning before attempting execution; creating and implementing performance markers; identifying problems and potential mitigation before they occur; and the need for clear lines of both responsibility and accountability among the project parties.
