I'm an
Individual
My Name is Kelland Guerin and 6 months ago I separated from the US Navy as a seasoned E-5. I worked mainly as an Aviation Structural Mechanic on two separate aircraft platforms throughout my career. I earned multiple qualifications as well as many awards and accolades associated with military service during my career. I am a hard-working, very dedicated individual. When I am given a task I see it through to the end in the least amount of time possible. I have multiple years as a supervisor for both small jobs and work productions centers. I'm a hard-charger with boundless potential for furthering myself both personally and professionally.

My naval career ended in February 2014, I am currently a full-time student at Shoreline Community College and am currently looking for employment with a superior employer.
Career Highlights-
I was advanced to the next paygrade everytime I was eligible to do so. I received numerous licenses and certifications for quality control and aviation related support equipment.
