How did you get into the industry?
I have always liked
making things and in Year 12, I enjoyed the process of making a spare wheel and
jerry can holder made of metal. I also saw an article featuring my now current
boss in a 4 wheel drive magazine (4WD Monthly) and was interested to read about
the modifications he made to his 4WD - I got in contact with him and am now
doing my apprenticeship with Eddie Dobbin and Sons Engineering.
Would you recommend a trade/skill based career to
others?
Definitely, it is a very rewarding and satisfying career
path, if you work at always improving your skills you can be very
successful.
How has WorldSkills Australia helped you so far personally &
professionally?
WorldSkills Australia has helped me to believe in
myself and my capabilities. On a professional level, I feel my skills have
greatly improved.
Would you recommend others participate in the WorldSkills
Competitions?
I think anyone who is eligible should give the
competitions a go, no matter the result; you leave your WorldSkills experience a
well developed person.
What do you enjoy most about your job?
I enjoy watching a
project from beginning to end, seeing the finished product of something I have
made is very rewarding.
What do you hope to achieve in both short and long terms of your
career?
In the short term, I am looking forward to learning as much
as I can in the lead up to the International Competition, to fine tune my skills
and be happy knowing I have prepared.
