OBJECTIVE
I am hoping to join a business and/or company that can utilize my experiences and work
history to expand on my 30 years of cabinetmaking/woodworking background and
managerial experience.
STRENGTHS
I feel my strong background from working with the woodworking business and
understanding of the job at hand is one of many strong points. With my background of reading and working off of blueprints and drafting background makes fabricating many projects an extra special experience. Also with my operating my own business for 12 years helps me understand the many challenges and challenges of working with many different personalities that you need to work out problems in a resourceful way, staying calm and working through it.
