Summary
I have over 5 years of professional experience as a mechanic, within primarily the automotive world, but also heavy equipment and aircraft. It started by maintaining my own cars as a kid, and working my way up to a Mercedes certified technician. Between cars, trucks, heavy equipment, aircraft, and even boats, I have worked on most everything but am still eager to expand my knowledge and skill.
