About Me
I'm a self-motivated, adaptable, and dependable mechanical engineer with an extremely positive attitude and an outgoing personality. I take pride in my work and believe that the best opportunities arise from the most difficult challenges. My favorite aspect of engineering is gathering information from all available sources and piecing it together to develop a simple and unique solution to a presented problem. I'm seeking a position with upward mobility and the opportunity to gain a wide range of experience within a performance driven organization.
