Additional Information
Before going into grade 12, I worked in Whitehorse, Yukon doing repairs on heavy trucks and trailers along with camp tear-downs and clearing the Whitehorse dam of brush and debris(full trees for a week straight). Being here during my final summer break of school, working in a shop independently and constantly learning new things really solidified my decision to pursue a career in Heavy Duty Repair.
