What I'm looking for

I seek hands-on technician roles in reputable shops where I can apply collision repair, refinishing, and welding skills, grow technically, and contribute to strong customer satisfaction.

I am a detail-oriented Auto Body Technician with hands-on experience repairing and restoring vehicles to pre-damage condition, skilled in damage assessment, body repairs, part replacement, and refinishing techniques.

I have worked as an Auto Body Apprentice and progressed to Auto Body Technician roles, using welders, frame straighteners, collision-repair methods, and painting tools to deliver high-quality results in fast-paced shop environments.

I bring strong problem-solving abilities, technical knowledge, and a commitment to efficiency and customer satisfaction, thriving both independently and as part of a team.
