About
I recently completed a 6-week program where I learned the basics of HVAC, gaining hands-on experience and earning my EPA Universal certification. This has provided me with a solid foundation to build upon. Now, I’m eager to get into the field, continue learning, and apply what I’ve learned by working alongside an experienced team to gain more real-world experience."
