Summary
Meticulous Utility Locator with 9 years of experience. Dedicated to timely and accurate work with talent for blueprint design and utility mapping systems. Knowledgeable about safety and gas, water, electric, and telecom systems. I am a self motivated individual, and through out my working life I have held positions that require me to be self sufficient in what I do with little to no supervision necessary.
I have also dedicated myself to the communities by serving up to 10 years as a first responder and firefighter and serving as a police officer as well. These have taught me many communications skills, as well as how to deal with high pressure and high profile situations in a timely manner and at any stress level.
