What I'm looking for

I seek hands-on roles in agriculture or equipment repair where I can apply mechanical and maintenance skills, grow responsibilities, and work in a reliable, team-focused environment.

I am a dependable and hardworking technician with hands-on experience in farm operations, appliance repairs, and basic automotive diagnostics.

At Rhone KS 321 I performed fencing, irrigation management, livestock care, and mechanical diagnostics, demonstrating versatility across agricultural and mechanical tasks.

Previously I installed, serviced and repaired household appliances, responded to customer calls, produced estimates and handled invoicing and stocktake reporting.

I am punctual, quick to learn, team-oriented and willing to relocate; I bring practical problem-solving, strong communication and reliable attendance to every role.
