My career as a Motor Mechanic began in 2006 when my Parents bought a used Mercedes Benz sprinter to assist with paying for our tuition fees. By 2007 it had begun having breakdowns. Few mechanics in our area knew how to fix it until I found a specialist who, when I asked to teach me about the trade was glad to. I ended up fixing myself. It eventually ran until 2013 when we sold it still in tip-top condition as I had taken up the fascinating trade of Mechanics as an apprentice.
I have successfully fixed many brands of vehicles, both trucks and cars and now wish to progress further to the latest vehicle technologies that are not yet in our market.
I always find joy in the smiles of customers who bring their vehicles for service or repairs and get them back in time and running as they should, the organisation also benefits with customer retention thereby generation profit.

ROLE: APPRENTICESHIP- ARTISAN
DUTIES:
I trained with the organisation carrying out mantainance of the Company's fleet of vehicles which Included trucks, vans and small vehicles.
Since weekdays are always spent at work, a bike ride usually clears the mind, followed by a bath depending on days a movie, a technical book while listening to music does the trick.
On weekends I visit car shows or hangout with friends with similar interests or do community voluntary work.
