I am a skilled heavy-vehicle operator and municipal maintenance technician.
What I'm looking for
I am a hands-on maintenance and transportation professional with extensive experience in municipal public works, heavy vehicle operation, fleet maintenance, and emergency response. I combine field work with administrative duties and driver training responsibilities.
I have formal training and certifications in automotive collision repair, EPA painting practices, and hazmat response, and I hold a commercial driver’s license with air endorsement and a DOT medical card. I have operated and maintained heavy equipment, managed vehicle repairs, and run a transport business handling invoicing and driver compliance.
I bring a safety-first mindset, reliable work ethic, and a practical approach to problem-solving. I am looking to contribute my maintenance, driving and fleet management expertise while mentoring others and supporting efficient operations.
