About
I am a young physically fit person who always attends work with a positive attitude. I have done a lot of different works from dry lining, to carpentry to painting. I have developed a lot of skills that both of these jobs need over my many years in construction.
I enjoy doing practical work on my own or working as a team. My positive attitude and willingness to learn means I'm always looking and more than happy to learn new things or trades within any trade. I can use power tools from plunge saws, to chop saws to kangos safe and efficiently.
I'm currently trying to learn more on the trade side of a carpenter as I've done a lot of carpentry work over the years. But I want to further this so I can get my BLUE CSCS card.
