Self employed professional luthier at Arrowhead Guitars (www.arrowheadguitars.co.uk)
I have run my own business for the past nine years, designing and building electric guitars and basses, as well as offering mechanical and electrical repair, upgrading and servicing for a wide variety of acoustic and electric guitars and basses.
This has demanded a variety of skills, including problem-solving and repair (mechanical and electrical), stock control and purchasing, and working to a deadline where necessary. I regularly deal with customers, and have no problems with communicating both them and the companies that manufacture instruments and/or supply parts and materials, both in the UK and around the world.
I spent eight years as a single parent to two daughters, carrying out all the necessary tasks needed to keep them healthy and happy.
Engineer at Trianon, carrying out servicing and repairs to hydraulic equipment, mostly bottle and trolley jacks, and hand-pump units.
Mechanic and parts storeman at Neil Young Motorcycles, maintaining and ordering parts for stock and workshop/customer orders, preparing new and used motorcycles for sale, and carrying out servicing and repairs to customer bikes where necessary.
Private Hire driver (mostly delivering customers to airports)
Builder's mate (mixing cement/carrying bricks/etc.) for a local builder.
Driver, cleaner and checker for Kenning Car Hire.
Petrol Station Cashier.
I have a full UK driving licence for cars and motorcycles, with no points or endorsements.
My hobbies revolve around music. I have played in a number of bands, on a variety of instruments - bass, drums, guitar (electric and acoustic) and mandolin. I'm currently working on singing while accompanying myself on guitar.
