Summary

I have an expanding EAM knowledge base and detail oriented when writing PMD's. I'm a team player with excellent communication skills making sure all involved are on the same page when it comes to finishing projects.

I also have 21 yrs in the electrical trade. Hard working with and extensive background in electrical installation. and troubleshooting. Educated in all three facets, residential, commercial, and industrial. Started union to get an education and become an electrician. then moving on to do service work and data along with comms. Eventually becoming a lead, then finally foreman. Good at adapting, learning, and staying with something till mastering it or become proficient in it. A strong belief in leaning into the hard things it's where the most experience and knowledge is gained. With a belief satisfaction comes from a job well done. I'm also Osha 10 certified, forklift certified, confined space certified, on the hazard team, been to school for our line 7 and 8 slicer machines. Proficient in EAM and utilizing resources to find parts. What i am lacking in experience i will make up for in hard work a zest for knowledge and asking the right questions of the right people. I care about doing things right and making a difference no matter what I'm tasked with. I'm not afraid to make mistakes or own them and learn from them to minimalize future ones. I have never failed at any job I've ever taken on.
