Summary

Straight out high school I pursued my career in automotive work. That consisted of being a porter for the shop I worked for in the beginning. Moving my way up to a painter apprentice, From there I worked my way to being a body technician helper to becoming a body technician. After that I began my career in the warehouse industry, learning all about safety procedures and learning how to work following OSHA procedures. I furthered my warehouse career learning how to operate forklifts, table saws and overhead cranes. After the career in the warehouse I decided I wanted to work on the river, So I went to a shore company named AccuTrans. I learned the basics in tanking barges and learning the safety policies for that job, Making sure me and everybody around me had a safe work site. From there I made my way into becoming a automotive mechanic. Learning to how evaluate situations and finding a solution.
