This highly experienced Diesel Fitter and Mechanical Technician has built a diverse career spanning over two decades across mining, defence, local government, and agricultural sectors. Beginning with a decade of service in the Royal Australian Navy, he developed strong skills in mechanical maintenance, workshop supervision, safety compliance, and team leadership. 

Since transitioning into the mining industry, he has worked with numerous Queensland-based companies including Cook Colliery, Mickela Mining Group, ASG Pty Ltd, G&S Engineering, ABM Contractors, HD Mining Group, and Key Solutions Group. His work has involved scheduled and breakdown maintenance, fault diagnosis, equipment operation, and overhauls of complex machinery such as Joy CM, shuttle cars, LHDs, haul trucks, roof supports, and longwall systems. He consistently adheres to mining regulations and safety protocols, actively contributes to workplace health and safety initiatives, and mentors new staff. His earlier roles in rural contracting and council work further highlight his adaptability and practical problem-solving abilities. 

Holding a wide range of qualifications—including Cert IV in Heavy Diesel Mechanics and Fitting & Turning, Cert III in Welding, and certifications in confined space, working at heights, and hazardous chemicals—he is a dependable, safety-focused professional with a proven track record of supporting operational efficiency and team development.
