In 1987 I started attending MOTECH Education Center which was an automobile repair training facility but has since closed. In 1989 I received a certificate of completion of all offered automobile repair courses and passed the State of Michigan tests to becom a state certified master automobile technician. I worked as a repair technician untill December 1995, then I was hired to work at United Technologies - Automotive as a designer. I have been working on vehicle interior/exterior components since January 1996. I have experience with instrument panels, doors, consoles, headliners, storage compartments, and hard trim. I have also worked on rocker panels, mud guards, fascia grilles, emblems, and badging. I would like to continue working in the automotive industry but would also consider others.I am currently interested in learning about opportunities near Palm Bay, Florida.Specialties: I have worked mostly on automotive interior components and would consider myself to be very knowledgeable in feasability, design and packaging within an instrument panel environment.
