Additional Information

In my time working at RPM12 We have had 3 Canon Digital Presses. Currently we have a Image press C810, and a Varioprint 115. I am very comfortable with Fiery Command Work Station, and Impose. I oversee the print quality of these printers and constantly make color and registration adjustments either on the machine itself running calibrations, or adjusting the file input on the Fiery. Since working with these machines for the last 7 years I have become quite familiar with diagnosing issues that the printers may be having so that I can effectively communicate to our Technicians what issues it may have so they can be prepared with parts to service them. In my role I perform the TCRU maintenance for the Varioprint 115 and am very comfortable performing these tasks.

Fishing

In my free-time I enjoy taking my Labrador out to a lake or beach and getting to spend time in nature fishing.

Camping

When I can I enjoy Overland Camping and Off-roading.
