I am an experienced electrician with a strong background in electrical engineering and a commitment to excellence. My journey began with a solid educational foundation, including an N2 in Electrical Engineering and a successful completion of my Electrical Trade Test. I have honed my skills through hands-on experience at Ubuntu Sonke Engineering and Exxaro Matla Coal, where I contributed to various projects and ensured compliance with safety standards.

Throughout my career, I have developed a diverse skill set that includes active listening, critical thinking, and effective communication. I thrive in collaborative environments and am dedicated to problem-solving and project management. My recent work involved installing and maintaining the Conlog Smart Meter for the EMalahleni Local Municipality, showcasing my ability to adapt and excel in challenging situations.
