    Travelling

  • Description

    I am looking to come to New Zealand with my wife as she completes her last clinical placement for her master's of occupational therapy degree. We are from Ontario, Canada and love to travel, explore and try new foods! I have 15 years experience as a maintenance student up to the Maintenance Senior title (last 12 years) and have learned skills in every trade like building, plumbing, electrical, fine wood work, mechanical, danger tree cutting, search and rescues, first aid, etc. in the last 5 years or so I started getting into special projects managing. I work time efficient and with the highest quality. My attitude at work as well as any other time in life is to make people laugh, enjoy their time at work and make them want to come into work rather than the norm. We are responsible and hard working. We enjoy getting to know new people and are always up for an adventure.

  • More details about your skills

    I have 15 years experience as a maintenance student up to the Maintenance Senior title (last 12 years) and learned skills in every trade like building, plumbing, electrical, fine wood work, mechanical, danger tree cutting, search and rescues, first aid, etc. in the last 5 years or so I started getting into special projects managing. If there was a job that required the trades professionals but the boss wanted to save some money, he sent me in. I'd learn the learning curve with a small team of students and we'd complete the projects with the tools we had and did everything to near perfection to the ideas the boss had or that I was allowed to create. Projects such as: four natural boardwalks totaling over 500 feet and not depleting the area of trees. In fact, you'd never know we we're there. Utilizing four wheelers and their winches to pull trees from exterior area reaches. Building up to medium "Coverall" building kits and fabricating a heavy tarp sliding door to keep snow out. Custom plumbing, carpentry to adapt to free sinks we got from head office... Custom 6 rack canoe rolders cemented into the ground but made to fit into the wilderness scene. Many large and small projects. I work time efficient and with the highest quality.

    My attitude at work aswell as any other time in life is to make people laugh, enjoy their time at work. make them want to come into work rather than the norm.

    I've shot commercials, a short film that's up for a couple awards, video skits, and weddings with my Panasonic AG-DVX200 and would like to get into more filming. I'm currently part of a production company called Salt & Crown Productions. I'm also a beginner, credited film critic. But a helpful one. Not our to make a name for myself.
