"I love everything about it. I have a gift of foreseeing things before they go bad and take the necessary actions to correct the problem. Love to always look for improvements, upgrades and new ideas. In matter of fact I used to go to bed thinking about tomorrow's project... on how can I do it to save money and time. I wished I had that chance again, where I can make a difference because there is nothing like doing something you love for a job."
