Summary
Skilled journeyman plumber with experience in residential and commercial plumbing. I have strong technical skills, including troubleshooting, installations, repairs, and maintenance of plumbing systems. I pride myself on outstanding customer service, and the ability to communicate well with customers in providing knowledge to help them make the best decision for themselves. I'm a strong team player and someone who is very easy to get along with. I've got a strong work ethic, as I moved out of home at 19 and had to rely on myself. I believe I would have value to add at any place of employment.
