Over the years, I have accumulated a wide array of knowledge areas. I have owned a few businesses, which gave me good clerical, mathematic, record keeping and organizational skills.
I also have labored hard, working on fishing boats, in shipping facilities, wood mill etc. I am proficient, with all types of hand, power tools and machinery. I am mechanically inclined, having worked on things as small as a fishing reel, to as large as a diesel engine.
My motto is ''failure is not an option'', I have worked unsupervised most of my life, when something needed to be done I did it, there was no one to pass it off on. I have owned my own businesses in the past and I believe this helps me by always giving 100% to achieve my goals.
