Summary
I’m a hands-on, adaptable worker with a mix of experience in rail yard operations and construction. I’ve taken on roles that required staying organized, keeping things moving safely, and stepping in wherever I was needed. I’m comfortable working with tools, equipment, and fast-paced environments, and I’m used to figuring things out quickly. I work well with different teams, communicate clearly, and take pride in doing the job right the first time. No matter the task—whether it’s physical work, coordinating with others, or troubleshooting—I stay focused, reliable, and ready to learn whatever comes next.
