Summary

Marine Corp Veteran from 2015-2022. I have many specialties under my belt including, someone specialized in truck maintenance, mechanics, and driving. I left the marines to take over my family owned Fiberglass business, where I would reglaze, fix, spray or patch any holes that a customers tub needed. After a few years, I decided to leave for health concerns and entered into landscaping. I'm a harder worker skilled in designing and maintaining landscaping work for diverse customers. Well-versed in keeping business operations cost-effective and customer satisfaction high. Effectively used power tools and equipment to maintain healthy plants, fix bathtubs, or weld. History of working alone or with performance-oriented teams to complete weekly tasks.
