About
I have worked 15 years in auto parts in my home country and 1 year as a tire technician in Suitland, Maryland. Somedays I service up to 15 automobiles. I am a hard worker and I am ready to land a full-time career helping more people with their vehicles. I am a Christian and I will do my best for my future employer. I will not let you down.
Experience
I worked from January 2015 to July 2024 self-employed at Motor Spare Parts of Onitsha. I started this business and then gifted it to my brother.
Currently, I work as a tire technician at a 24 hour tire shop in Suitland, Maryland. I have worked here nearly 1 year, but now I would like full-time work elsewhere. I am willing to relocate.
I have my worker's permit and social security number, so I can legally work in the USA.
