Accomplishments
I have lived a life of value and poured myself into every project I have undertaken. I do have life experiences that will aid me in this new position as a mechanic for the Pender County bus garage. Though I do not intend to resign from my Pastorate, there has came a time now in my life where I must fall back on the things I have learned. I would like to use my skill sets I have obtained over the years to aid Pender County in their endeavor to provide safe reliable transportation for the youth living in our county.
