Summary

I did 6 years at Formosa Plastics as a pipe fitter and welder. I was able to learn about how the production process worked, learning how to trace lines to make sure we are welding the correct piece of equipment. I then was promoted to maintenance supervisor where I was in charge of personnel and scheduling the job duties for 11 years.


I then accepted a job offer at Invista in 2007 where I am currently employed as a Process Operator and an Op.Tech, where I am required to perform operations duties along with maintenance task when full time mechanics aren't available.
