Summary

After moving to the Yukon, I have shifted slightly in my career path from making vehicles look good, to operating them. Over the past two years I have gained a multitude of experiences operating several types of equipment for different types of companies. I'm looking to perfect those learned skills while expanding on that skillset. Diligent Loader Operator possessing excellent hand-eye coordination and multitasking abilities. Precise and efficient individual with 10 years of experience operating loaders, forklifts and excavators and other heavy machinery. Comfortable lifting up to 100 pounds and working in all weather conditions. Safety-conscious operator skillful in conducting pre-operational checks on all equipment and maintaining ongoing maintenance. In-depth knowledge of transportation and safety rules and regulations. Track record of achieving exceptional results in achieving deadlines and quotas.
